Specifying a Simulation Start and Stop Time
By default, simulations start at 0.0 s and end at 10.0 s.
Note
In the Simulink software, time and all related parameters (such
as sample times) are implicitly in seconds. If you choose to use a
different time unit, you must scale all parameters accordingly. |
The Solver configuration pane
allows you to specify other start and stop times for the currently
selected simulation configuration. See Solver Pane for more information.
On computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system,
you can also specify the simulation stop time in the Simulation menu.
Note
Simulation time and actual clock
time are not the same. For example, if running a simulation for 10
s usually does not take 10 s as measured on a clock. The amount of
time it actually takes to run a simulation depends on many factors
including the complexity of the model, the step sizes, and the computer
speed. |
