Abstract

PurposeTo set up the analytical model of reaction wheel assembly (RWA) by using the other theory and to provide a new method to identify the parameters of the empirical model of RWA.Design/methodology/approachSetting up the analytical model of RWA using virtual work theory, and presents the energy compensation method. The energy compensation method to improve the computation accuracy of amplitude coefficients of the empirical model of RWA. In the empirical model of RWA, the assumption is that the disturbances consist of discrete harmonics, and the amplitudes is proportion to the square of the wheel speed.FindingsThe errors of amplitude coefficients adopting energy compensation window excel the amplitude spectrum method. The energy compensation method improves the parameters identification accuracy, and provides a new method to set up more accurate empirical disturbance model of RWA.Practical implicationsProviding a valuable identification method of amplitude coefficients of the empirical model of RWA, and improving the accuracy of identification.Originality/valuePutting forward up the method of energy compensation to identify the amplitude coefficients of the empirical model of RWA, and improving the accuracy. This method is simple, practical for the system design.
