The main disadvantage of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is Vibration produced in it. This paper presents the vibration analysis of Switched Reluctance HUB Motor. The main source of vibration is electromagnetic force. The force value is obtained by the FE magnetic field analysis and applied to the Finite Element (FE) mechanical modal analysis. A numerical model of 4-phase 8/6 SR Hub motor is tested to attain the natural frequencies and deformation of the stator. For different designs and modes of stator, natural frequencies are obtained in modal analysis. Transient or Harmonic Analysis is also accomplished to compare its results with the ones obtained using the modal method.

Abstract


The main disadvantage of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is Vibration produced in it. This paper presents the vibration analysis of Switched Reluctance HUB Motor. The main source of vibration is electromagnetic force. The force value is obtained by the FE magnetic field analysis and applied to the Finite Element (FE) mechanical modal analysis. A numerical model of 4-phase 8/6 SR Hub motor is tested to attain the natural frequencies and deformation of the stator. For different designs and modes of stator, natural frequencies are obtained in modal analysis. Transient or Harmonic Analysis is also accomplished to compare its results with the ones obtained using the modal method.
