Electrical machine electromagnetic-caused noise and vibration represents an ever-increasing target for machinedesigners. A novel late design-stage NVH optimization method using the full rotational velocity synthesized vibration-response map is proposed. This is assisted by a target-setting method for the most important force harmonics using a force sensitivity analysis. The procedure is applied on a PMASynRM used for light traction applications, where the rotor cross-section is modified by introducing notches and saliency. The results for different percentages of permitted decrease in average show that both resonances and individual frequency orders can be directly targeted and minimized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
