One of the promising areas of digitalization of the economy today is associated with the concept of digital twins of technical systems. Digital twins based on simulation models of technical devices, which are calibrated according to the results of experimental studies on a real-time device are of great interest. Such models allow us to conduct preventive analysis of the operation consequences of these devices in various modes. Thus, a problem occurs to develop parametrically coupled models of physical processes of various natures that underlie the principles of operation of these devices. Currently, for these purposes, simulation software packages are used. MatLab Simulink software is the most popular one. However, not all such software packages provide tools to work with chain models of all physical processes that are of the user interest. Thus, the purpose of this article is to develop methods to construct digital twins of technical devices using models of arbitrary physical processes (in particular, thermal) based on electrical equivalent circuits. It unifies the task of modeling processes based on circuit theory. To develop the method to construct digital twins, the authors have applied the phenomenon of isomorphism of equations of physical processes based on the theory of circuits that is based on the theory of ordinary differential equations. The simulation has been carried out in the MatLab Simulink environment using the SimScape library for modeling physical processes. Assumptions typical for circuit theory are made during simulation. A method has been developed to construct simulation models based on the use of electrical equivalent circuits of physical processes of an arbitrary nature. In contrast to existing approaches, where the analogy method is used to simulate one of the processes of the researcher interest, it is proposed to develop a single integrated model of all physical processes underlying the operation of this class of devices. It will reduce the level of requirements for simulation systems by limiting the requested functionality of these systems to electrical circuits only. The proposed method can be used as the basis for the development of digital twins of technical devices that allow simulating their operation in arbitrary modes, considering a variety of related factors of different physical nature. |
