modelSwitchWithArc

Comparison of switch models both with and without arc

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This example is to compare the behaviour of switch models with and without an electric arc taking into consideration.

  • Simulate until T=2 s.
  • Plot in one window: switch1.i and switch2.i

The difference in the closing area shows that the simple arc model avoids the suddenly switching.
