A method for emulating induction motor operation using an electronically commutated motor (ECM) is described herein. The method includ es receiving, at the ECM, a desired operating torque, accessing induction motor operating characteristics stored within the ECM, and calculating a new torqu e demand if a speed associated with the desired operating torque is greater than a breakdown speed of the induction motor. The method also includes setting an output torque for the motor substantially equal to the torque demand for the motor if the spee d associated with the desired operating torque is less than the breakdown spee d of the induction motor, moving the output torque toward the demanded torque if not substantially equal, and operating the motor at the output torque.
