Types of Equivalent Circuit Models
Currently, you can generate the following model types:
- Linear Motion - Models inductance (or capacitance) and force as functions of current (or voltage) and position. The parametric solution should cover the range of motion and conductor current (or voltage).
- Rotational Motion - Models using rotational rotor position sweep.
- Transformer - For one coil only, models nonlinear mutual (magnetizing) inductance with a linear leakage inductance branch. Therefore, this model is only valid for 1-phase transformers. The parametric solution should cover the range of current for one coil only in an open-circuit test. Nonlinear mutual inductances for 3-phase (or more) transformers are better solved using the transient solver.
- Matrix - Models an inductance or capacitance matrix for one or more conductors, as a function of current or voltage. The parametric solution should cover the range of each conductor’s current or voltage.
- Lookup Table - This option creates a lookup table model in Simplorer format.
