Induction motor specfications

Hello, I'm in the process of modelling a 2250 hp, 3-phase induction motor/generator. I have used the induction motor equivalent circuit to create an equation for torque as a function of slip. I used motor specifications given in a pretty good book, "Analysis of Electric Machinery" (Krause & others). I am confident that my equation is correct, however when I plot the torque speed curve, my curve peaks in the right place, but its magnitude is about 1/18th of what the book's curve is. So I am doubting my motor specs. Where can I find specficiations for an induction motor of this or similar size? I need: resistance of stator, resistance of rotor, reactance of stator, reactance of rotor, and magnetizing reactance.

Thank you very much,

Andrew Gentile

Why not use Table 4.10-1 of Krause "Analysis of Electrical Machinery"? The fourth entry is for a 2250 hp, 2300V,1786 rpm motor.
 
Hello, i am looking the chapter in Krause where explain the induction motor model deduction
