Add starting point for figures in Electrical Machines, PowerConvertes, QuasiStatic

[maltelenz]

These originate from figures created for Wolfram System Modeler, and are likely to need cleanup and improvement.

Our one existing figure in MSL is probably a good style to follow:

ModelicaStandardLibrary/Modelica/Blocks/package.mo

Lines 159 to 180 in 3f72865

	figures = {
	Figure(
	title = "Anti-windup compensation",
	identifier = "anti-windup",
	preferred = true,
	plots = {
	Plot(
	title = "Reference tracking",
	identifier = "tracking",
	curves = {
	Curve(y = integrator.y, legend = "Reference speed"),
	Curve(y = inertia1.w, legend = "Actual speed")}),
	Plot(
	title = "Anti-windup limiter",
	identifier = "limiter",
	curves = {
	Curve(y = PI.limiter.u, legend = "Input to the anti-windup limiter"),
	Curve(y = PI.y, legend = "Controller output")})},
	caption = "%(plot:tracking) Reference speed (%(variable:integrator.y)) and the actual speed (%(variable:inertia1.w)). The system initializes in steady state, since no transients are present. The inertia follows the reference speed quite good until the end of the constant speed phase. Then there is a deviation.
	%(plot:limiter) Here the reason for the deviation can be seen: The output of the controller (%(variable:PI.y)) is in its limits. The anti-windup compensation works reasonably, since the input to the limiter (%(variable:PI.limiter.u)) is forced back to its limit after a transient phase.
	")}));

Creating as Draft to indicate that library officer(s) probably want/should improve them before merging.

just adding starting point for figures - thx @maltelenz - fine with me!

I investigated this PR using Dymola2025x.

Units

This may be a Dymola issue, but the provided plots do not show units:

(Dymola does not show time units -- but this is a very different issue.)

Units and signals

The PowerConverter examples show separated current and voltage waveforms. The units are in this case correctly display by Dymola2025x:

Under some coditions (e. g. in Modelica.Electrical.PowerConverters.Examples.DCAC.PolyphaseTwoLevel.PolyphaseTwoLevel_RL) the units are displayed correctly:

This may be caused by the (not correctly determined) units of the signal outputs of the current and voltage sensors.

Units and axis

The provided examples

• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCEE_Start
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCPM_Start
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCPM_Temperature
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCPM_withLosses
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCSE_SinglePhase
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCSE_Start
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_DOL
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_Inverter
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_Transformer
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_YD
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMS_Start
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.SynchronousMachines.SMPM_Inverter
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.SynchronousMachines.SMR_Inverter

show

• current (A)
• torque (N.m)
• speed (rev/min)

in one subplot. As the speed has a very different scale and behavior, it may make sense to show speed in a different subplot. Current and torque are much more physically connected, so it makes sense to show them in one diagram. For two figure with two different units I prefer plots with two different y axis.

Similar issues of "unequal units with one axis" occur in:

• Modelica.Electrical.PowerConverters.Examples.DCDC.HBridge.HBridge_DC_Drive: voltage and speed
• Modelica.Electrical.QuasiStatic.SinglePhase.Examples.ParallelResonance and Modelica.Electrical.QuasiStatic.SinglePhase.Examples.SeriesResonance: length and angle (which shall be in deg, so the DisplayUnit may have to be set properly, first)

Compare differently

In example Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.DCMachines.DCPM_QuasiStatic it may make sense to directly compare

• transient and quasi static current
• transient and quasi static torque
• transient and quasi static speed

in three different subplots.

Failed investigations

Models I could not test due to #4696 are:

• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_Conveyor
• Modelica.Electrical.Machines.Examples.InductionMachines.IMC_withLosses
