Description

Model of a hydro motor with variable displacement volume and losses.

The main parameters of the motor are its maximum Displacement volume and the Rotational moment of inertia. The displacement volume can be adjusted by using the setpoint signal:

setpoint = 0Displacement volume = 0
setpoint > 1Displacement volume = Displacement volume
sign(w) = sign(fluidPortA.mFlow)
setpoint < -1Displacement volume = Displacement volume
sign(w) = -sign(fluidPortA.mFlow)
1 > setpoint > 0Displacement volume = Displacement volume * setpoint
sign(w) = sign(fluidPortA.mFlow)
-1 < setpoint < 0Displacement volume = Displacement volume * setpoint
sign(w) = -sign(fluidPortA.mFlow)

The losses are parameterised by providing volumetric and mechanical efficiencies Volumetric efficiency and Mechanical efficiency for a given operating point. The operating point is characterised by a reference pressure difference Reference pressure difference and a corresponding shaft speed Reference speed. Based on the entered values, the parameters of a laminar throttle (volumetric losses) and a linear damper (representing the mechanical losses) are determined automatically. Unlike the efficiencies, the parameters of these two elements typically do not vary significantly with the operating conditions.

The parameter Ration external Leakage / total Leakage allows to split the leakage between internal and external leakage. A gear pump e. g. typically has no external leakage, Ration external Leakage / total Leakage has to be set to 0. In contrast, a piston pump has a significant external leakage (0.5 < Ration external Leakage / total Leakage <= 1).
