Modeling a DC motor in p-spice.

Sep 23, 2006 2 Replies

Anybody know of a model for a DC motor 1/20 hp, 40 volts that I can use in p-spice.



I figured it out. There is a laplace icon where you can input the parameters of the motor! Now back to designing my first P.I.D. controller!

The load that you put on the motor makes a big difference in its terminal behavior, particularly if you are driving it in current.

But if you're just playing with simulating a PID controller just about any old thing will do.
