The book that I used in college seem to use different terminologies than what I've seen on the practice exams.

When referring to the induction motors (according to my book):

P[conv] = P[AG] - P[rot]

P[rot] = s*P[AG}

P[conv] = (1-s) * P[AG]

where s = slip, P[conv] = power convert, P[AG] = air gap power

From the practice exams, there are "mechanical power developed", "electromagnetic power", "power input to rotor"

I think "mechanical power developed" = "electromagnetic power" = P[conv]

and P[AG] = power input to rotor

Anyone familiar with this?
