Impact of Electromechanical Coupling on Shaft Torsional Dynamics

The electromechanical coupling model is employed to define the all-mode shape and torsional mode shape, and deduce the linear solutions of torques. Based on the solutions of torques, mode shapes of torques and mode contribution factors of torques are defined. The above physical concepts can directly describe shaft torsional dynamics, and get more insights than the mode shapes previously defined. Moreover, the theoretical basis and the physical implications of free vibration and forced vibration models are analyzed in detail. In light of the difference between the electromechanical coupling model and the free vibration model, the deviations between the calculated and measured values are explained for mode shapes and natural torsional frequencies. The difference between the dynamics of the electromechanical coupling and forced vibration models is analyzed as well.
