Abstract

Due to various factors such as manufacturing, assembly and operation, the motor air gap will be uneven in the circumferential direction, resulting in the air gap eccentricity having a longer air gap on one side and a shorter air gap on the other side, which affects the normal operation and service life of the motor. This paper analyzed and compared the applicability of linear and nonlinear calculation methods of unbalanced magnetic pull. Based on the method of finite element analysis, the unbalanced magnetic pull of motor rotor under static eccentricity, dynamic eccentricity and compound eccentricity faults were calculated, and the influence of eccentricity on unbalanced magnetic pull was compared, respectively. The results showed that when the motor has static eccentricity, the main components of unbalanced magnetic pull on the rotor are zero frequency and twice the electrical frequency. When the motor has dynamic eccentricity, the unbalanced magnetic tension component of the rotor is mainly frequency conversion. When the motor has two faults at the same time, the unbalanced magnetic pull has zero frequency, rotating frequency and double electric frequency components at the same time. With the increase in the relative eccentricity, the frequency components of the unbalanced magnetic pull under the three faults increase. An air gap eccentricity fault widely exists in motor equipment. When the unbalanced magnetic pull increases to a certain extent, the rotor will be pulled towards the stator, causing the occurrence of rub-impact phenomenon, and seriously threatening the safe operation of the system. In this paper, the numerical analysis method and finite meta-computing method were used for the first time to analyze and compare the unbalanced magnetic pull on the rotor of permanent magnet synchronous motor under three kinds of air gap eccentricity faults. The results showed that the characteristic frequency amplitude of the unbalanced magnetic pull calculated by the two methods is relatively close. Therefore, it is of great significance to carry out calculation and analysis of the unbalanced magnetic pull force under the air gap eccentric fault of the motor.
