    Abstract

    In this paper, attenuation of flexural rotor vibration in electrical machines is considered. In order to generate force on the machine rotor, an electromagnetic actuator based on self-bearing machine working principle is examined. A control method for attenuating harmonic rotor vibration components is applied in a 30 kW two-pole cage induction machine. The machine is equipped with a four-pole supplementary winding for generation of lateral force on the rotor. Experimental results for the two-pole induction motor are presented. The main contribution of this paper is to apply a control method, specially designed for compensating harmonic excitations, by using a built-in electromagnetic actuator in an induction machine.
