N2 - In this paper a study is performed of the electromagnetic and vibration behaviour of Vernier Reluctance Machines (VerRM) across a wide range of cases including the conventional and DC bias operation and different winding configuration. The electromagnetic performance of the machines are evaluated by means of FEM across different level of DC bias current and the magnetic flux density, torque and force are calculated and compared. In order to produce a fair comparison all machines possess the same stator back-iron dimensions, and the simulation uses a fixed AC excitation current. The vibration behaviour of the machines is evaluated including modal analysis and vibration response. Finally, Equivalent Radiated Power waveforms are obtained for all DC values at fixed speed to identify the vibration contribution.
