Software: High Speed Simulation

 

During the past years, PLECS has become the tool of choice for high-speed simulations of power electronic systems in the MATLAB®/Simulink® environment. Now, PLECS is becoming even more versatile: In addition to the traditional PLECS Blockset, PLECS Standalone is available as a completely independent product — and even faster thanks to its own, dedicated solvers!

The two editions share the same intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface and the same system-oriented modeling approach. Analog and digital control structures can be modeled directly in PLECS using continuous and discrete signal processing blocks. The extremely flexible C-Script block allows custom functionality to be implemented directly in the C programming language.

What's new in version 3.1

  • Steady-state and AC analysis
    Powerful analysis tools that quickly determine the periodic operating point or the frequency response of a switching power circuit are now available both in the PLECS Blockset  and in PLECS Standalone

  • Fourier spectrum and XY plot
    For any periodic signal displayed in the PLECS scope the user can plot a Fourier spectrum at the push of a button.  The analysis range is determined by the cursor positions in the scope window.  The XY plot lets you display the relationship between the two signals over selected time range.

  • Advanced machines models
    The synchronous machines and the saturable induction machine offer a voltage-behind-reactance implementation that permits open-circuited stator windings. This makes it easy to interface with arbitrary external circuits such as rectifiers.
