Abstract
A method of 3-D finite element magnetomechanical analysis is developed to investigate the effect of magnetostriction (MS) and stress on the core loss and vibration of motors. Shrink-fit stress calculation is carried out using static structural analysis and equivalent thermal force calculated by a novel method using the thermal stress tensor. A method of core loss calculation is proposed to take account of the 3-D stress in the core loss calculation. The methods are applied to the core loss and the vibration analysis of a permanent magnet motor. Numerical results show that the stator core loss increases significantly due to the shrink-fit stress. However, the radial velocity of the housing surface slightly decreases due to the MS and further decreases due to the shrink-fit stress because the MS increases under compressive stress.
