Abstract

In this paper, an analytical calculation of the magnetic field in a consequent-pole bearingless permanent magnet (PM) type motor with rotor eccentricity is proposed. The analytical method is based on the resolution of Laplace's and Poisson's equations. Due to the presence of consequent-pole, the general solution of the first-order for the vector potential distribution in the air-gap is presented considering the first harmonic. Here, the magnetic field distributions by the analytical method are compared with those obtained from finite element (FE) analyses. Then, the corresponding performances are quantitatively assessed by the ﬁnite-element method.
