This document discusses modeling core losses for a doubly-fed wound rotor induction machine. It presents a core loss model that considers the core loss resistance to be variable and dependent on rotor and stator frequencies. The model is represented by a modified equivalent circuit for the machine. Results show that by properly selecting stator and rotor frequencies for different rotor speeds, the total core loss can be restricted to the rated value over a rotor speed range of 0 to 1 per unit.
