Simulation of Induction motor using Simulink / Simscape

Question

I wish to generate a training dataset for a Machine Learning system) of Induction Motor operation using the Induction Motor model in Simulink / Simscape. I am observing the Stator Currents and noting that each simulation run is almost identical to the next. Any idea about how to add variability like a real motor?

Answer 1

In order to see fluctuations, you should change the load in your motor.

Inputs to motors: Electrical power

Outputs of motors: Mechanical power

Motor's input behaves in many cases because of the mechanical load that is connected to it so you should connect variable mechanical loads to the output of your motor.
