In this study, the influence of the stator and rotor geometric parameters on the rotor bar current waveform and performance characteristics of a squirrel‐cage induction machine (IM), based on a slot/pole number combination (48‐stator slot/8‐pole/52‐rotor slot), with the same winding layout, stator outer diameter, stack length, stator current, and rated speed as the Toyota Prius 2010 interior permanent magnet machine, is investigated. In order to reveal the individual influence of each parameter, parametric analyses have been conducted for each geometric parameter, and the corresponding variations of torque, torque ripple, power losses, and efficiency are numerically studied. It has been shown that in addition to rotor slot width, rotor slot depth, and stator slot width, corresponding to rotor tooth width, rotor tooth height, and stator tooth width, respectively, have a significant effect on the bar current waveform and performance characteristics while the slot opening widths have the least effect.
