plecsutil.pi

plecsutil.pi.gen_m(file, file_path, params)

Generates the .m file containing all model parameters required for the simulation.

Parameters:

  • file (str) – Name of the PLECS model file (without path and .plecs extension). The .m file is created with the same name as the PLECS model.

  • file_path (str) – Path to the directory where the .m file will be saved.

  • sim_params (dict) – Dictionary with model parameters for the simulation.

plecsutil.pi.sim(file, file_path, sim_params, close=True)

Simulates a PLECS model.

Before running the simulation, sim_params is used to create a .m file containing the parameters of the model.

Parameters:

  • file (str) – The filename of the model (without path and the .plecs extension).

  • file_path (str) – The path to the directory containing the model file.

  • sim_params (dict) – A dictionary with the model parameters for the simulation. This dictionary must contain all parameters required by the model. The dictionary should contain only float, int or numpy arrays as values.

  • close (bool, optional) – Whether to close PLECS after running the simulation. Default is True.

Returns:

A tuple containing:

  • t (N-size numpy.ndarray): Simulation time vector.

  • sim_data ((N, M) numpy.ndarray): Array of simulation data values.

  • plecs_header (str): Header information from the PLECS output file.

Return type:

tuple
