Use

Domains: Continuous. Size: 1-D. Kind: Iconic Diagrams (Translation).

Description

This model represents an ideal transmission with a free pivot point. The relations are:

Transmission-Universal

 

p3.v = (i/(1+i))*p1.v + (1/(1+i))*p2.v;

p2.F = (1/(1+i)*p3.F;

p1.F = (i/(1+i)*p3.F;

 

Ground

Although each of the three ports may be connected to the ground, it is more efficient to use other models. When p1 or p2 is connected to the ground, this model is equal to the Transmission.emx model. When p3 is connected to the ground, this model is equal to the Lever.emx model.
