Rotational Speed Sensor

Purpose

Output measured angular speed as signal

Description

../../_images/speedsensor.svg

The Rotational Speed Sensor measures the angular speed of the flange marked with a dot with respect to the other flange.

Note

Speed and angle sensors are ideally compliant. Hence, if multiple speed or angle sensors are connected in series, the speed or angle measured by an individual sensor is undefined. This produces a run-time error.

Parameters

Second flange

Controls whether the second flange is accessible or connected to the rotational reference frame.

Probe Signals

Speed

The measured angular speed, in \((\frac{\mathrm{rad}}{\mathrm{s}})\).
