InternalSupport
Adapter model to utilize conditional support connector
Library
Modelica/Mechanics/Rotational/Interfaces
Description
This is an adapter model to utilize a conditional support connector in an elementary component, i.e., where the component equations are defined textually:
- If useSupport = true, the flange has to be connected to the conditional support connector.
- If useSupport = false, the flange has to be connected to the conditional fixed model.
Variable tau is defined as input and must be provided when using this component as a modifier (computed via a torque balance in the model where InternalSupport is used). Usually, model InternalSupport is utilized via the partial models:
PartialElementaryOneFlangeAndSupport,
PartialElementaryTwoFlangesAndSupport,
PartialElementaryRotationalToTranslational.
Note, the support angle can always be accessed as internalSupport.phi, and the support torque can always be accessed as internalSupport.tau.
