Information

This is a simple test of model TwoFlange.

It shows that the generated torque follows the normalised torque request as long as it does not overcome torque and power limits. The generated torque will act on the machine inertia in conjunction with the torques applied from the exterior to the two flanges.

It shows also the effects of efficiency on the DC power.

First suggested plots: a plot with tauRef.y and twoFlanges.inertia.flange_a.tau; with the same axes another plot with twoFlanges.limTau.powLimActive and twoFlanges.limTau.powLimActive. In these plots it can be seen that:

·  during the first 18 seconds the generated torque equals the torque request tauRef.y

·  between 18 and 21 s the maximum torque limit is reached, but not the maximum power limit

·  between 21 and 33 s the maximum power occurs

·  after 33s, the requested torque is delivered.

Second suggested plot: once the first plots are analysed, the user might want to have an idea of the mechanical and electrical powers: these are seen putting in the same plot (powMech1.power+powMech2.power) and powElec.power.
