Saturable magnetizing inductance parameters file
Saturable inductor and saturable transformer share the same magnetizing inductance parameters
How to specify the magnetizing inductance parameters of a saturable inductor/transformer in the Schematic Editor?
The saturable inductor/transformer block uses a table-defined magnetizing inductance.
This file has to be in a specific format which is described below.
What is the format of the saturable magnetizing inductance parameters file ?
The saturable magnetizing inductance parameters are described in a JSON format. The following parameters must appear in the file.
Parameter (JSON key) | Value type | Unit | Description | Example |
---|---|---|---|---|
magnetizingFluxBreakpoints | double[] | Wb | Core magnetizing flux | "magnetizingFluxBreakpoints": [ |
currentValues | double[] | A | Current through the magnetizing branch | "currentValues": [ |
The examples provided above, when combined in a valid JSON format, would appear as follows:
{
"magnetizingFluxBreakpoints": [
0.0,
0.0000129,
0.00002,
0.0000227,
0.0000236,
0.0000239
],
"currentValues": [
0.0,
0.64,
1.28,
1.92,
2.56,
3.2
]
}
Parameter constraints
The following constraints applies the saturation characteristic:
where
is the magnetizing flux, and
is the magnetizing current.
Additionally, the number of elements of the array “magnetizingFluxBreakpoints“ shall be the same of “currentValues“.
