I am not sure I am using the right term either.

Take a rotating disc and mount a series of coils axially to the disc. Using=
 a polyphase drive to the coils, it becomes an induction motor.=20

Most pancake motors seem to be BLDC and some axial flux motors might be ind=
uction motors but I am not sure.

Most design equations for induction motors assume a squirrel cage.=20

I need to be able to take a stab at estimating the torque from the coils an=
d eddy reaction.

Thanks

Veronica
