Abstract

This article deals with a methodology for a computer-aided design of electromechanical actuators from the preliminary design of components to the detail design of the electrical motor. The developed library of components for the simulation takes advantage of the non-causal and object oriented characteristics of the Modelica language. The capabilities of the Modelica language and the LMS.Imagine.Lab AMESim or Dymola Platforms are strongly used in order to build a fully integrated process to design and size the different component of the final actuator. The proposed approach is illustrated with the sizing of a flight control actuator.
