A non‐intrusive method for friction and windage losses estimation in induction motors
In the in‐service induction motors (IMs), friction and windage losses (FWL) value should be determined non‐intrusively. Hence, in the in‐service IMs, instead of measuring FWL, empirical equations are used to estimate FWL value.
