Translational Constant Speed

Constant speed, not dependent on force

Modelica Standard Library

	Description
	The Translational Constant Speed (or Constant Speed) component generates a fixed 1-D translational constant speed at the flange. The Use Support Flange boolean parameter enables a support flange on the housing. When true (checked) the support flange must be connected in the drawing. When false the component is internally fixed to ground.

	Equations
	$v = v_{fixed} = \overset{&period;}{s}$ $f = f_{flange}$ $if Use Support Flange then f_{support} = - f$ $s = s_{flange} - {\begin{array}{c} s_{support} & Use Support \\ 0 & otherwise \end{array}$

Variables
