Influence of Radial Force HarmonicsWith Low Mode Number on Electromagnetic Vi…

Permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM)have been widely used in a variety of applications. A strong electromagnetic force exists between the rotor magnets and the stator core in a PMSM. The force directly causes mechanical deformation and vibration of the stator. In small PM motors, mechanical vibration comes mainly from the electromagnetic force of the stator. This paper gives the general…
