Abstract
High-frequency torsional oscillations of a 50 horsepower (hp) induction motor are investigated up to approximately 30 kHz. It is experimentally determined that torsional oscillations, due to the switching harmonics of the motor drive, contribute significantly to the torsional oscillation of the output shaft. Two torsional vibration models are developed. One model assumes the rotor to be rigid, while the other has a compliant rotor. The compliant model allows for greater transmission of high-frequency oscillations, and a better prediction of the measured output shaft vibration.
