Thanks again, everyone, for your replies.
@Tom.G: Your suggestion got me thinking and after some digging I found the following IEEE article
about analytical modeling of slip rings. I'll http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/4072999/?reload=true
I think that I can extract the necessary theory...
Hi Everyone,
Thanks very much for your replies, let me see if I can address them:
@berkeman: Thanks for the waveform model, that's quite helpful; I'm afraid I don't follow your logic in modeling the contact as a relay though?
@tech99: 10kA seems about right for a median amperage value, I am...
Hi Everybody,
First post on the forum, this one's stumped me I'm afraid. I'm basically trying to model a rotary connection in an AC circuit, and I'm having a bit of trouble with it. Ideally I'd like a reasonable approximation with conventional circuit elements.
Basically I've got a...
