Description

Block Mutual Inductor It is a mutual inductance described by the following equations:

Where:

  • — winding voltage 1;

  • — voltage on winding 2;

  • — the current of the primary winding;

  • — secondary winding current;

  • — inductance of windings;

  • — mutual inductance;

  • — coefficient of mutual induction, ;

  • — Time.

This block can be used to represent an AC transformer. If the effect of inductance and mutual inductance is not important in the model or unknown, you can use a block Ideal Transformer.

Each of the two electrical networks connected to the primary and secondary windings must have its own unit Electrical Reference.

Ports

The unit has four electrical ports. The polarity is indicated by the signs ** and *−* . The ports marked 1 and 1− are connected to the primary winding. The ports marked 2+ and 2− are connected to the secondary winding.

Parameters

Inductance L1 — inductance L1
10 Gn (by default) | scalar | positive

The intrinsic inductance of the primary winding.

Inductance L2 — inductance L2
0.1 Gn (by default) | scalar | positive

The intrinsic inductance of the secondary winding.

Coefficient of coupling — coefficient of mutual induction
0.9 (by default) | scalar | positive

The coefficient of mutual induction, which determines the mutual inductance. The parameter value must be greater than 0 and less than 1.

Initial value of primary current i1 — initial value of primary current i1
0 (by default)

The initial value of the primary current .

Initial value of primary voltage v1 — initial value of primary voltage v1
0 (by default)

The initial value of the primary voltage .

Initial value of secondary current i2 — initial value of secondary current i2
0 (by default)

The initial value of the secondary current .

Initial value of secondary voltage v2 — initial value of secondary voltage v2
0 (by default)

The initial value of the secondary voltage .
