Inputs

Standard inputs

DC voltage

The voltage of the source feeding the DC machine.

Speed

The rotating speed of the DC machine.

Advanced inputs

Circuit resistance

Parasitic resistance of the circuit connecting the DC voltage source with the DC machine.

Circuit inductance

Parasitic inductance of the circuit connecting the DC voltage source with the DC machine.

Number of computations per revolution

The number of computations per revolution “No. comp. /revolution” (Number of computations per revolution) influences the accuracy of results and the computation time.

The default value is 50. The minimum allowed value is 13. This default value provides a good balance between the accuracy of results and computation time.

Number of computed revolutions

The default value is 1. The minimum allowed value is 1 and the maximum value is equal to 4.

Mesh order

The default level is second order mesh.

Airgap mesh coefficient

Airgap mesh coefficient is set to 1.5 by default.
