IdealGear

Ideal gear without inertia

Information

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

This element characterizes any type of gear box which is fixed in the ground and which has one driving shaft and one driven shaft. The gear is ideal, i.e., it does not have inertia, elasticity, damping or backlash. If these effects have to be considered, the gear has to be connected to other elements in an appropriate way.
