Vibration Technique for Processing and Monitoring Electrical and Mechanical Defects in Electrical Drives Using 2-D Mathematical Model

Ali S. Hennache & Lazhar Bougoffa · Physical Science International Journal · 2014

The radial flux density in the air-gap of rotating machines sets up a force of attraction between the stator and the rotor surfaces. In a symmetrical machine, the radial stresses distributions are balanced resulting in zero net force on the rotor. However, if the rotor of a rotat...
