Creating relief valve motor slaves

So far you have used one slave formed from one of the sub-systems. We will continue this example and create slave systems for the relief valve and motor.

Step 1: Make a relief valve slave system

The relief valve forms the central section of the master system, connected to the two discrete hydraulic lines. Therefore it requires a two-port master block.

Procedure

1. Select the relief valve sub-system, including the two end caps.

Note that on your system HLLWCNXFLOW0 and HLLWCNXEFFORT0 might be the other way round. This is not significant.

2. Cut the selected sub-system from the master system (Ctrl+X).

3. Paste the sub-system into a new system (Ctrl+V).

Remember that this new system must include the two discrete hydraulic end-pieces. The sub-system cut from the master was connected through two ports to HLLWPIPE0 submodels. This means that there must be a 2-port slave block in the master and a 2-port master in the slave.

4. Add a 2-port master to the slave system:

Step 2: Make a motor slave system

Figure 14: Motor slave

Procedure

1. Construct this system in the same way as you did the Relief Valve slave, this time using a 1-port master.

2. Save the system as SimpleMotorSlave.ame.

Step 3: Construct the master system

Procedure

1. Now you can construct the master system as follows:

Figure 15: Master system

2. Again, you associate each slave block with the appropriate slave sub-system:

3. Click on Close and load the two new systems.

Again, we expect essentially the same results for the plots: Figure 18: Plot comparison
