Description

The Wind Drum Two Webs component models simultaneous winding of two webs with variable roll radius and inertia.

Usage

The Wind Drum component must be at the end of two web lines.

Using the provided 1D rotational flange (flangec), the Wind Drum component can be equipped with a motor.

Equations

Consider the drum shown below:

Ta1,Ta2

Upstream tension

va1,va2

Upstream speed

τ

Motor torque (zero if modeling an idler roller)

ω

Angular velocity (positive means wind)

Rc

Core radius

R1t,R2t

Instantaneous roll radii for web 1 and 2

dB

Bearing damping coefficient

th1,th2

Web thicknesses

W1,W2

Web widths

Ta1R1t+Ta2R2t=τmJtdωdtdBω

va1=R1ωva2=R2ω

The roll inertia consists of the core inertia, Jc, and the approximate roll variable inertia, Jt:

Jt=Jc+π2λ^Rt4Rc4

where

λ^=ρ1W1th1+ρ2W2th2th1+th2

Roll Radius

The time-varying roll radius is given by the following differential equations:

When Use stepwise=false, the effective roll radius is given by

dRtdt=ωth1+th22π

with the following initial value:

R0=12Dinit+th1+th2

The radii of the layers are calculated as:

R1t=Rtth22

R2t=Rt+th12

When Use stepwise=true and Use multistep=false the effective roll radius is given by:

dRtdt&equals;{ωth1&plus;th2δφ0<φ<δφ0otherwise

where φ is the rotation of the drum between 0 and 2π and the roll radius increases only over a portion of each turn defined by the merge angle δφ.

We also have the following initial value:

R0&equals;12Dinit&plus;th1&plus;th2

The radii of the layers are now calculated as:

R1t&equals;Rtth22

R2t&equals;Rt&plus;th12

When Use stepwise&equals;true and Use multistep&equals;true the effective layer radii are given by:

dR1tdt&equals;{ωth1δφ10<φ&Hat;11<δφ10otherwise&plus;{ωth2δφ20<φ&Hat;12<δφ20otherwise

dR2tdt&equals;{ωth1δφ10<φ&Hat;21<δφ10otherwise&plus;{ωth2δφ20<φ&Hat;22<δφ20otherwise

with the following intitial values:

R10&equals;Rt&plus;th12

R20&equals;Rt&plus;th22

In the above, δφ1 and δφ2 are the merge angles for layer 1 and 2, respectively.

Also, φ&Hat;ij are angles dependent on the initial web starting point angle parameters (φ2 and φ21) and the variable angle between the tangent point of web 1 and web 2, β12:

    In this case, we also define Rt&equals;12R1t&plus;R2t

Example: Using the multistep option

Consider this simple model which only covers the winding of two webs:

Relevant model parameters and layout is shown below:

The multistep winding results in the following sequence of changes to the radii:
