The torque createdby the motor shaft is proportional to the current.KTIKIT where, K = constant; T = torque; I = currentThe power of the motor is:KVKITIVPmmWhen a rotating mass is added the moments are summed the following equation is found:dtdJTdtdJTMWhen the equations are manipulated, an equation relating voltage and angular velocity can be found: JRKVJRKdtdRKVKdtdJRKVKTRVVIsssms2Setup2Lab 8a:The following figures show the two LabVIEW setups used during the lab. Fig. 1 shows asetup in which a voltage output was sent to the motor amplifier and the voltage from the tachometer was the input. Fig. 2 shows a setup in which a more detailed function was used to control the motor.Figure 1: LabVIEW setup for controlling DC motor.Figure 2: LabVIEW setup for more control over DC motor.3A small disc was used in the second part of the experiment with the following parameters:Table 1: Parameters of inertial disc used.Radius 0.0508 mMass 0.0363 kgThickness 0.0015875 mProcedureLab 8a:1. Measure the resistance of the motor.Resistance 1.015 k2. The motor, motor amplifier, power supply and tachometer were connected to a computer running the LabVIEW program shown in Fig. 1. The analog output was used to drive the motor amplifier. The analog input was used to measure the motor speed from the tachometer.3. A hand-held strobe tachometer was then used to find the relationship between the tachometer voltage and the angular speed.4. Two different ramps were found when the voltage output from LabVIEW was increased from 0 to 4 volts and from 2 to 4 volts. This step involved the LabVIEW program shown in Fig. 2.Lab 10a:1. Wire the motor control servo amplifier. Connect the amplifier input to a potentiometer to test the motor driver circuit. After testing and debugging is complete, disconnect the potentiometer and connect the servo amplifier to the analog output of the computer. Test the connection using the DAQ Configure program.2. Connect the large potentiometer to the analog inputs for the computer, and use the +/- 12V supply. Test the input range using LabVIEW. Connect the potentiometer and motor shafts together with a piece of hose. In this configuration the potentiometer voltage will be proportional to the angle of the motor shaft.3. Enter a LabVIEW interface for a feedback controller that will read the position of a motor shaft using a potentiometer, and then position the motor with an analog output voltage.ResultsLab 8a:Table 2 shows the relationship between the voltage that was output from the tachometer to the RPM that the tachometer was reading.

Fig. 3 shows the output from the tachometer when the input voltages from the LabVIEW program to the amplifier were 0 to 4 volts. Fig. 4 shows the output from the tachometer when the input voltages from the LabVIEW program to the amplifier were 2 to 4 volts. The ramp function causes a exponential increase that settles to a constant angular velocity. No inertial mass was used in this step.Ramp From 0 to 2 Volts -0.5 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 0 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.25 1.5 1.75 2 2.25 2.5 2.75 3 3.25 Time (S) Voltage (V) Figure 3: Ramp fucntion from 0 to 2 volts from the tachomter. 5Ramp From 0.5 to 2 Volts 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 Time (S) Voltage (V) Figure 4: Ramp fucntion from 0.5 to 2 volts from the tachomter.The functions of the above two graphs were found to predict the tachometer voltage.For Fig. 3 the function was found to be:Vm = 2 – 2e-1/(0.375-0.0625)tTherefore, Vm = 2 - 2e-(1/0.3125)t2.50Vmt( )40 t0 1 2 3 4012Tach.

The mathematical model accurately portrayed the experimental plot. 7Lab 10a:Lab 10a was not completed due to complications with the circuitry shown below in Figure 7. Therefore, no results were obtained and the performance of the proportional controller could not be determined.Figure 7: Lab 10a
