Abstract

Eccentric rotor motion of an electric motor induces an unbalanced magnetic pull. This eccentricity force may couple the electromagnetic system with the flexural vibration modes of the shaft. This paper presents an analytic model for this eccentricity force allowing an arbitrary rotor motion and transient operation. The general equations were simplified for the constant flux and steady-state operation. These simplified equations correspond well to the results presented earlier.
