The peripheral speed lies between 15 to 50 m/s. As the diameter of the armature increases, the peripheral velocity of the armature v = πDN/60 m/s ,
For the normal design of induction motors the calculated diameter of the motor should be such that the peripheral speed must be below 30 m/s. In case of specially designed rotor the peripheral speed can be 60 m/s.
