Description

Block AC Voltage Source It is an ideal voltage source, that is, the voltage at its output terminals does not depend on the current flowing through it.

The output voltage is determined by the following equation:

where

  • — tension;

  • — peak voltage amplitude;

  • — frequency;

  • — phase shift;

  • — the time.

Ports + and − correspond to the positive and negative poles of the voltage source, respectively. The current is positive if it flows from the positive to the negative pole; the voltage at the source is equal to the potential difference at the positive and negative terminals., .
