Motor Model and Inertia

Configure load and inertia values to represent realistic motor behavior.

Motor dynamics are strongly affected by load profile and total inertia.

Key parameters

  • Load: Represents opposing mechanical demand.
  • Inertia: Defines how quickly speed can change.

Higher inertia smooths transients but requires more control effort to accelerate or decelerate.

Practical guideline

Start from conservative values and increase complexity gradually while monitoring response stability.
