When the voltage drops below 385 VDC, the Aries drive stops dissipating power through the
power dump resistor.

Energy Dissipated in Motor Winding Resistance
Some energy is dissipated in the motor windings. Because the energy is
converted to wasted heat in the motor, it is referred to as copper losses.
The energy during deceleration can be derived from the inertia, deceleration
rate, motor resistance, and motor torque constant. If some of the parameters
are not known, the energy dissipated in the motor windings (EW) can
conservatively be assumed zero (0).
This is based on current and motor winding resistance.

Where
EW = energy dissipated in the motor windings (Joules) – copper losses
I = current through the windings (Ampsrms)
RM = line to line motor resistance (Ohms)
tD = deceleration time (Seconds)
JM = rotor inertia (k gm2)
JL = load inertia (kgm2)
kT = motor torque constant (Nm/Amprms)
ω = rotational speed in radians per sec (1 revolution/sec =
2⋅π⋅radians/sec)
