In permanent-magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) electromagnetic forces are identified as the principal source of vibrations and noises. In this article, first of all the sources of magnetic forces in PMSMs are analyzed. ...

In this article a general analytical model for the analysis of permanent magnet synchronous machines with static eccentricity is presented. The model is a continuation of [1] and it is based on Fourier time-space series ...

Eccentricity is an inevitable fault in electric motors and hence its diagnosis is an important topic. Thus, the influence of static and dynamic eccentricities on the harmonics of the frequency spectra of the unbalanced ...

Eccentricity is a common error in electric motors, so its diagnosis is an important issue. Therefore, the effect of static and dynamic eccentricities on the harmonics of the frequency spectra of the voltage of a phase is ...

This paper proposes an automatic detection test of gain faults in current sensors. An offline test is applied when the machine is not operating. The designed test operates at standstill without being necessary to disconnect ...

The vibration of the stator frame due to electromagnetic forces is one of the main noise and vibration sources of electric machines. In some applications, due to the wide variety of working conditions, design optimizations ...
