Abstract

Electromagnetic excitation in high power density permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) due to eccentricity is a significant concern in industry; however, the treatment of lateral and torsional coupled vibrations caused by electromagnetic excitation is rarely addressed, yet it is very important for evaluating the stability of dynamic rotor vibrations. This study focuses on an analytical method for analyzing the stability of coupled lateral/torsional vibrations in rotor systems caused by electromagnetic excitation in a PMSM. An electromechanically coupled lateral/torsional dynamic model of a PMSM Jeffcott rotor is derived using a Lagrange–Maxwell approach. Equilibrium stability was analyzed using a linearized matrix of the equation describing the system. The stability criteria of coupled torsional–lateral motions are provided, and the influences of the electromagnetic and mechanical parameters on mechanical vibration stability and nonlinear behavior were investigated. These results provide better understanding of the nonlinear response of an eccentric PMSM rotor system and are beneficial for controlling and diagnosing eccentricity.
