Ideal gear without inertia

Extends from Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Icons.Gear (Icon of a rotational gear), Modelica.Mechanics.Rotational.Interfaces.PartialElementaryTwoFlangesAndSupport2 (Partial model for a component with two rotational 1-dim. shaft flanges and a support used for textual modeling, i.e., for elementary models).

Information

This element characterizes any type of gear box which is fixed in the ground and which has one driving shaft and one driven shaft. The gear is ideal, i.e., it does not have inertia, elasticity, damping or backlash. If these effects have to be considered, the gear has to be connected to other elements in an appropriate way.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
BooleanuseSupport (from PartialElementaryTwoFlangesAndSupport2)false= true, if support flange enabled, otherwise implicitly grounded

Connectors
