Abstract:
The paper deals with modelling of a Twin Rotor MIMO System a laboratory
model constructed by Feedback Instruments Ltd. The system consists of a
two rotors which resembles a simple helicopter. The non-stationary part of
the model can rotate around two perpendicular axes to produce azimuth and
elevation output of the system. These outputs are affected by speed of the
rotors. Significant cross-coupling can be observed and the system behaviour
is nonlinear. A model based on firstprinciple modelling was derived and is
parameters were refined by identification based on real-time experiments.
Resulting model was designed in MATLAB/Simulink environment and can
serve for control design
Objective:
To get an overview of Twin Rotor MIMO System (TRMS) Apparatus based upon
the gyroscopic motion and observe its basic principles.
Introduction:
The goal of the work was to obtain a mathematical model of the Twin Rotor
MIMO System [8] and to design the model in MATLAB-Simulink environment.
The Twin Rotor MIMO System was developed by Feedback Instruments Ltd.
and serves as a real-time model of nonlinear multidimensional system. The
major reason for creating the model of this laboratory equipment was usage
of the model in control design process. A model, which represents the plant
well, can considerably reduce testing time of different control approaches.
Then only promising control strategies are applied to the real plant and
verified.
Model Parameters:
The model parameters are shown in table 1.
Exercise No. 1:
Model Testing
Load matlab and the menu systemusing the windows start menu.
Matlab will run and the simulink model menu will open. This contain
the options as shown in fig. 6:
Double click on the TRMS Simulation Model block in the main menu,
a sun menu will open as:
To begin with, the user is advised to check the responces of the TRMS
Non Linear Model alone with zero, constant and sinosidal voltage
applied to both rotors.

Gyroscopic motion:
A gyroscope is a spinning wheel or disc in which the axis of rotation is free
to assume any orientation by itself. When rotating, the orientation of this
axis is unaffected by tilting or rotation of the mounting, according to the
conservation of angular momentum. Because of this, gyroscopes are
useful for measuring or maintaining orientation.
Yaw Moment:
Pitch Moment:
The pitch moment is the moment produce by a force on the body if that
force is consider to be applied not on the centre of pressure but on the
geometric centre of the body.
Applications:
Conclusion:
From the experiment, we conclude that the basic principle on which a Twin
Rotor works is that of gyroscopic motion. The change in rotation of rotors
brings a change in the pitch axis as well as in the yaw axis. This is all
about the gyroscopic phenomenon. We can observe the output behaviour
on the compuer screen using built in MATLAB software.
