Title: Magnetic lumped parameter modeling of rotor eccentricity in brushless permanent-magnet motors

Abstract

Vibration, giving rise to acoustical noise, is an important index of motor performance. The unbalanced force due to rotor eccentricity caused by manufacturing imprecision or bearing defects is one possible source of excitation to vibration. The previously developed fast design package for permanent magnet motors, based on magnetic lumped parameter modeling, is modified to predict the influence of rotor eccentricity. Both static and dynamic cases are investigated. Magnetic material nonlinearity is taken into consideration. A two-dimensional relative permeance function is derived by conformal transformation followed by the modification of permeances modeling the air gap. Static and dynamic rotor eccentricity bring different effects to symmetric and asymmetric motors and are discussed separately.
