Controlled ideal leaking switch of analog electrical library

Extends from Interfaces.OnePort (OnePort partial model of analog electrical library).

Information

The controlled ideal leaking closing electrical switch is built in bondgraphic technology from a bond graph Sw2 element, a 1-junction, and three bonds. In addition, an effort detector senses the potential of the control input. If that signal is smaller than a threshold, called level, the switch is open. Otherwise, it is closed. This element is an idealized version of a transistor switch.

A-causal bonds must mostly be used here, because the causality depends on the embedding of the switch in its environment. A leaking switch has been used to ensure that the switch will not lead to a division by zero in either switch position, irrespective of the circuit topology.


Parameters:

 level:   Potential threshold for switch control (default value = 0.5 Volt)

 Ron:     Leakage resistance in on state (default value = 1e-5 Ohm)

 Goff:    Leakage conductance in off state (default value = 1e-5 Mho)
