High–power density electric motor designs are a requirement in aerospace and automotive applications. Outer rotor permanent magnet motors can offer high power density but have mechanical challenges such as structural stability and rotodynamic issues. In this work, a rotodynamic study was performed for two outer rotor permanent magnet motor designs. The first design was a cantilever design in which the rotor was suspended at one end, supported by four bearings; in the second design, the rotor was simply supported by two bearings in each end. Two different finite element method–based approaches, solid rotor and beam rotor methods, were used to extract the critical speed.
