Description
Block Ideal Transformer It is an ideal transformer described by the following equations:
where
-
— primary winding voltage;
-
— secondary winding voltage;
-
— the current of the primary winding;
-
— the current of the secondary winding;
-
— the transformation coefficient.
This block can be used to represent either an AC transformer or a semiconductor DC-to-DC converter. To model a transformer taking into account the inductance and mutual inductance, use the block Mutual Inductor.
Each of the two electrical networks connected to the primary and secondary windings must have its own unit. Electrical Reference.
Variables
Use the Initial Targets parameter group to set the priority and initial target values for the block parameter variables before modeling. For more information, see Configuring physical blocks using target values.
