The Constant Torque component generates a constant torque, independent of angular velocity of flange.

The Use Support Flange boolean parameter enables a support flange on the housing. When true (checked) the support flange must be connected in the drawing. When false the component is internally fixed to ground.

$\mathrm{\tau }\={\mathrm{\tau }}_{\mathrm{constant}}\=-{\mathrm{\tau }}_{\mathrm{flange}}$

$\mathbf{if}\mathrm{Use\; Support\; Flange}\mathbf{then}{\mathrm{\tau }}_{\mathrm{support}}\=-\mathrm{\tau }$

$\mathrm{\phi }\={\mathrm{\phi }}_{\mathrm{flange}}-\{\begin{array}{cc}{\mathrm{\phi }}_{\mathrm{support}}& \mathrm{Use\; Support}\\ 0& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$
