Abstract

This paper presents a Harmony Search Optimization (HSO) based design methodology for maximizing both the starting torque and the efficiency of Induction Motor (IM). HSO is inspired the musical process of searching for a perfect state of harmony. The harmony in music is analogous to the optimization solution vector, and the musician’s improvisations are analogous to local and global search schemes in optimization techniques. Among the number of design variables of the IM, seven variables are identified as primary design variables and the HSO based design methodology is tailored to optimize the chosen primary variables with a view to obtain the global best design. The optimal design obtained by the developed methodology for two IMs are presented with a view of illustrating the superiority.
