Member Function Documentation

double ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::calculateMotorHeatPower	(	const ethercat_hardware::MotorTraceSample &	sample,
		const ethercat_hardware::ActuatorInfo &	actuator_info
	)

Determines power being put into motor as heat (in Watts)

Definition at line 272 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

void ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::diagnostics ( diagnostic_updater::DiagnosticStatusWrapper & d )

Appends heating diagnostic data to status wrapper.

Definition at line 397 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

double ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::getHousingTemperature ( ) [inline]

Gets current winding temperature estimate (for testing)

Definition at line 189 of file motor_heating_model.h.

double ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::getWindingTemperature ( ) [inline]

Gets current winding temperature estimate (for testing)

Definition at line 187 of file motor_heating_model.h.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::hasOverheated ( ) const [inline]

Not thread save, should be called by same thread that calls update()

Definition at line 185 of file motor_heating_model.h.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::loadTemperatureState ( )

Load saved temperature estimate from directory.

Definition at line 555 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

void ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::reset ( )

Resets motor overheat flag.

Definition at line 388 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::saveTemperatureState ( )

Saves current temperature estimate to file given directory.

Filename will be named : <actuator_name>_motor_temp Update of file should be atomic.

Definition at line 669 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::startTemperaturePublisher ( )

Definition at line 254 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::update	(	double	heating_power,
		double	ambient_temperature,
		double	duration
	)

Updates motor temperature estimate.

This uses motor data to determine how much heat power was put into motor over last control cycle. The control cycle is assumed to be relatively short so the update is done as a linear estimation of differential equation

Returns true if motor winding temperature is below acceptable limit, false if motor has overheated and halting enabled.

bool ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::update	(	const ethercat_hardware::MotorTraceSample &	sample,
		const ethercat_hardware::ActuatorInfo &	actuator_info,
		double	ambient_temperature,
		double	duration
	)		`[inline]`

Definition at line 176 of file motor_heating_model.h.

void ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::updateFromDowntime	(	double	downtime,
		double	saved_ambient_temperature
	)

Updates estimated motor temperature for long period of off-time.

Between runs of this program the motor temperature estimate is stored to a file. When the program is run again this saved temperature estimate needs to be updated base on time between runs. This function makes the assumption that no power was being put into motor between runs.

Because the motor may have been disabled for a long time, this function does not always use a interative approach to calculate new temperature

Definition at line 361 of file motor_heating_model.cpp.

double ethercat_hardware::MotorHeatingModel::updateFromDowntimeWithInterval	(	double	downtime,
		double	saved_ambient_temperature,
		double	interval,
		unsigned	cycles
	)

Updates estimated motor temperature for certain amount of downtime.

Runs motor temperture simulation with a certain step interval and for a given number of cycles. Will stop early if downtime reaches 0. Returns remaining downtime
