Hydro-Québec Models Wind Power Plant Performance

“Accurate modeling is essential not only for planning investments but also to detect situations that can cause an outage. With MathWorks tools, we can simulate power electronics, mechanics, and control systems in one environment, and our models respond like the turbines we have in the field.” —Richard Gagnon, Hydro-Québec

Allegro MicroSystems Reduces Anti-Lock Braking System Sensor Development Time

“Using MathWorks tools, we identified the best algorithm choice. Because the model ran much faster than our circuit simulator, we caught implementation errors much quicker and shortened our time to market. Cor”y Voisine, Allegro MicroSystems

Description

Multidomain Physical Modeling in MATLAB and Simulink

SimPowerSystems provides extended capabilities for modeling electrical power systems. You can create your physical plant model using physical connections and connect it directly to your control model built using signal flows in Simulink. SimPowerSystems models can also be connected directly to other MathWorks application- and domain-specific physical modeling tools, enabling you to model complex interactions in multidomain physical systems. You can use MATLAB® to parameterize your model, automate simulation tests, analyze output data, and optimize system performance. As a result, you can test your entire system (multidomain physical plant and controller) within the MATLAB and Simulink environment.
