UA for Powertrain - Functional Model

To be able to model all aspects of a Powertrain and to offer high flexibility for combining with other models, the Powertrain model is using the partial modelling approach.

The Information Model describes all aspects of a Powertrain system, containing the asset partial model related to orderable components and the functional partial model related to the application function part of the system (for basic concept see OPC 10000-81). The asset types to be used for the asset partial model are specified in OPC 40400-1 (OPC UA for Powertrain, Part1: Asset Management).

This part (OPC 40400-2) defines the functional model of the Powertrain. The possible connections (relations) enabling the navigation between related Powertrain Objects representing the same entity in different partial models are modelled by using ReferenceTypes defined in OPC 10000-23 (e.g. 0:IsHostedBy or 0:RepresentsSameEntityAs ReferenceTypes).
