Abstract

Purpose

Permanent magnet (PM) motors are widely used due to the progress of PM materials. Smooth operation is one of the most crucial requirements in precision applications, but vibration instability can be induced by fluctuating magnetic forces. This work is aimed at the elimination of magnetically induced vibration instability.

Methods

Three types of mirror-symmetric topologies are proposed to eliminate the magnetically induced vibration instability. All magnets in these topologies are circumferentially shifted into two groups and the magnets in each group are arranged into equally, increasingly and generally spaced topologies. An analytical model is developed by Hamilton’s principle to examine the elimination effect of vibration instability by the proposed topologies.

Results and conclusions

Based on the analytical model, the eigensolutions for the three topologies are formulated, and conditions for vibration instability elimination are determined as closed form expressions in basic parameters. The eliminations are demonstrated through several examples. Major analytical results are verified through numerical calculations.
