Permanent magnet brushed DC motors are used in several applications such as home automation or automotive industry. This is mainly due to their lightweight, low cost and compact structure. Thus, the importance to study the sources of noise and vibration in these motors, which is often complicated and can be attributed to many factors. In this paper, the cogging torque and electromagnetic forces are studied in the case of a small permanent magnet brushed DC motor with 2 poles and 3 slots. Addition of dummy slots on the rotor side is described with its effect on the evolution of both aspects. The aim of this study is to give the quantitative effect about torque ripple and radial forces for each harmonic in relation with these dummy slots.
