Charge and discharge of the supercapacitor

In this example, a supercapacitor is modeled, from which voltage readings are taken during its charging and subsequent discharge. To charge the supercapacitor for 100 seconds, a current of 100 mA is supplied to it from the mains. Then the supercapacitor is not used for one minute. During the next hour, a 50 mA load is connected for one second every 50 seconds to discharge the supercapacitor.

Defining the function to load and run the model:

In [ ]: 
function start_model_engee()
    try
        engee.close("supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior", force=true) # закрытие модели 
        catch err # в случае, если нет модели, которую нужно закрыть и engee.close() не выполняется, то будет выполнена её загрузка после catch
            m = engee.load("$(@__DIR__)/supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior.engee") # загрузка модели
        end;

    try
        engee.run(m, verbose=true) # запуск модели
        catch err # в случае, если модель не загружена и engee.run() не выполняется, то будут выполнены две нижние строки после catch
            m = engee.load("$(@__DIR__)/supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior.engee") # загрузка модели
            engee.run(m, verbose=true) # запуск модели
        end
end

Writing simulation data to variables:

In [ ]: 
t = simout["supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior/SysOutput_1"].time[:]
load_current = simout["supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior/SysOutput_1"].value[:]
supercapacitor_voltage = simout["supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior/SysOutput_2"].value[:]
Out[0]:
WorkspaceArray{Float64}("supercapacitor_charging_and_discharging_behavior/SysOutput_2").value

Data visualization

In [ ]: 
using Plots
In [ ]: 
p1 = plot(t, load_current, linewidth=2, label="Нагрузка, мА", ylabel="Ток, мА", lc=2)
p2 = plot(t, supercapacitor_voltage, linewidth=2, label="Напряжение суперконденсатора", xlabel="Время, с", ylabel="Напражение, В")
