Abstract
High-speed direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), supported by elastic foil gas bearings, have broad applications, such as in microcompressors. However, some problems remain to be solved for the electrical performance analysis of PMSMs. For example, there is presently no related analytical model that can be used in rotor dynamics expression for this type of PMSM. This study aimed to establish theoretical models for electromagnetic force density and torque. The process involved both theoretical and experimental research. The analytic models of air gap magnetic density, electromagnetic force density, and electromagnetic performance were established for a PMSM with a parallel magnetized cylindrical permanent magnet. The analytic calculation was conducted, and the results of the analytic model were obtained. The analytical model of the electromagnetic torque and force can be applied in theoretical research on rotor dynamics. The model provides a theoretical basis and method for studying the influence of the electromagnetic load on rotor dynamics. A finite element simulation analysis of the electrical performance of the PMSM was carried out. An electrical performance experiment was conducted. The deviation between the experimental result and the theoretical value was less than 4%. This result indicated that the analytic models could be used in a dynamics analysis of compressors that are directly driven by a PMSM for application in engineering and industrial contexts.
