This paper presents a dynamic modeling of the multi-phase induction motor developed using MATLAB Simulink. Multi-phase motors refer to induction motors with a stator that comprises more than three phases. In recent automation, motor drives with more than three phases have gained significant interest due to their numerous advantages compared to traditional three-phase drives. These advantages include reduced space-harmonic content, the ability to operate even in the presence of phase open faults, higher torque density, and improved efficiency. Nevertheless, there exists a knowledge gap when it comes to understanding such as induction motors or multi-phase drives. It is important to emphasize the significance of modeling multi-phase induction motors, either for the purposes of teaching or conducting research in the field of power electronics and drives. Therefore, the dq-axis of six-phase and twelve-phase induction motors has been modeled under varying load conditions to observe their behavior. © 2023 IEEE.
