ConstantForce

Constant force, not dependent on speed

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Model of constant force, not dependent on velocity of flange.

Please note:
Positive force accelerates in positive direction of movement, but brakes in reverse direction of movement.
Negative force brakes in positive direction of movement, but accelerates in reverse direction of movement.
