挑战
AMETEK 是全球领先的电子仪器和机电设备制造商，与洛克希德·马丁公司签约，为联合攻击战斗机 (JSF) 项目设计便携式飞行服冷却装置。冷却装置与飞行员冷却背心配合使用，可将飞行员的深部核心温度保持在 ≤ 100.4° F (38° C)。 JSF 项目旨在为美国海军、空军、海军陆战队和盟国提供价格实惠的下一代攻击机武器系统。驾驶这些飞机的飞行员要承受高达 9g 的高加速度，并且必须穿着抗荷服以防止停电。为了防止飞行员在驾驶舱和地面遭受热应激，需要便携式飞行服冷却装置。设计挑战是监控多个变量并开发发送到控制设备以自动进行这些调整的代码。冷水机组还必须在其功率限制范围内运行，以防止损坏。

解决方案
AMETEK 的团队决定采用基于模型的开发 (MBD) 方法，并利用 SolidThinking Embed。使用solidThinking Embed，该团队通过框图方法创建了组合式冷水机组和控制系统的工作模型。他们利用实验室中植物反应的测量结果完善了植物模型。然后构建了一个具有互锁安全级的多环 PID 控制器，该控制器逐步执行必要的启动和关闭操作，以避免损坏敏感设备组件。在离线嵌入仿真中调试和调整控制器后，会自动创建来自控制器模型的 ANSI C 代码。然后，使用双向联合测试行动组 (JTAG) 链接对代码进行编译并直接下载到德州仪器 (TI) C2000 目标芯片。工程师测试了C2000上运行的控制算法固件。它驻留在 PC 上实时运行的 Embed 工厂模型中，使用 JTAG 技术轻松地在提供给固件的虚拟工厂输出和提供回 Embed 中的虚拟工厂模型的固件控制输出之间提供接口。
