In this paper we present a virtual instrument used to study the dynamics of systems through modeling and hardware-in -the-loop (HIL) simulation. For a D.C. motor is made, in Matlab environment, the mathematical model and this is included in virtual instrument like a Matlab script. The same virtual instrument, through PCI-6024E data acquisition card, ensure comparisons on front panel between results obtained by simulation with measured values of their.
This chapter proposes a state-space model for the DC motor built for separately excited voltage and considering two inputs: supply voltage and load torque. The three states of the resulted model are represented by angular speed, angular displacement, and current supply, and either of these states can be an output variable for the simulation model. Consequently, the system's model has two inputs and three outputs. Using this model, LabVIEW functions and programming structure of a simulator based on the virtual instrument is built, through which it is possible to observe the dynamic characteristics of the DC motor in different operating conditions. In this way, students can verify, by simulation, the operation of the DC motor as a dynamic system observing and measuring its reaction in different operating conditions.
