Electromagnetic exciting force is the key to generate electromagnetic noise. The characteristics of electromagnetic exciting force and the causing of electromagnetic noise were analyzed after the power was off for cooling fan Permanent Magnet DC (PMDC) motor. Time-stepping finite element method was selected to calculate its several parameters, such as air gap magnetic density harmonics generated by the stator and rotor, torque ripple and unbalanced magnetic pull at its different speed.Experiment on unloading vibration noise was carried out to confirm the validity of electromagnetic exciting force analysis. The results show: electromagnetic force amplitude keeps constant while the motor speed changing. Torque ripple decreases while the motor speed down. A kind of electromagnetic noise called howling noise produced by PMDC motor used in car cooling fan is mainly due to resonance. So the best way to eliminate this motor’s noise is to improve the order of electromagnetic waves and avoid the electromagnetic resonance.
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.
