Abstract
A system and method to simulate and evaluate management algorithms of a panel or mobile window, activated by an electric motor, with anti-crushing security and a program for its execution.
It includes a modular structure integrating a series of models representative of the electric parameters of the electric motor, mobile panel performance, incidence of a possible obstacle and an activation and control methodology implemented by means of a sequential state machine related to starting, stopping and/or motor displacement direction according to position and panel displacement direction and a module to evaluate an algorithm to be validated on introducing the current supplied to the motor and its angular speed and which analyzes said values and its temporary evolution and combinations between some or other values. Said models and modules are implemented in a high level programming language.
