“Tesla’s Egg of Columbus” is the project of Nikola Tesla
that proved the existence of rotating field produced by two-phase AC winding in
1893. Here in this study, generalised mathematical magnetic field model for
m-phase “Tesla’s Egg of Columbus” is established with its details. 3-phase
model of “Tesla’s Egg of Columbus” that is non-existing in the literature is
designed analytically by means of generalised expressions. Electrical and
geometric quantities are calculated and the system is analysed by Finite Elements
Analysis (FEA). The designed system is manufactured and tested at rated current
for constant and variable frequency with eggs made of different materials.
Optimised frequency for materials and geometries are obtained and compared.
