Model of stray load losses dependent on current and speed

Extends from Modelica.Electrical.Polyphase.Interfaces.OnePort (Component with two electrical plugs and currents from plug_p to plug_n), Machines.Interfaces.FlangeSupport (Shaft and support), Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Interfaces.PartialElementaryConditionalHeatPortWithoutT (Partial model to include a conditional HeatPort in order to dissipate losses, used for textual modeling, i.e., for elementary models).

Information

Stray load losses are modeled similar to standards EN 60034-2 and IEEE 112, i.e., they are dependent on square of current, but without scaling them to zero at no-load current.

For an estimation of dependency on varying angular velocity see:
W. Lang, Über die Bemessung verlustarmer Asynchronmotoren mit Käfigläufer für Pulsumrichterspeisung, Doctoral Thesis, Technical University of Vienna, 1984.

The stray load losses are modeled such way that they do not cause a voltage drop in the electric circuit. Instead, the dissipated losses are considered through an equivalent braking torque at the shaft.

The stray load loss torque is

tau = PRef/wRef * (i/IRef)^2 * (w/wRef)^power_w

where i is the current of the machine and w is the actual angular velocity. The dependency of the stray load torque on the angular velocity is modeled by the exponent power_w.

StrayLoad parameters

If it is desired to neglect stray load losses, set strayLoadParameters.PRef = 0 (this is the default).
