| New Features and Changes | Version Compatibility Considerations | Fixed Bugs and Known Problems |
|---|---|---|
Yes | No | Bug
Reports |
New features and changes introduced in this version are described here:
The Asynchronous Machine block now lets you simulate a double squirrel-cage rotor. The Rotor type parameter in the block dialog box has a new option, Double squirrel-cage, in addition to the existing rotor modeling options of Wound and Squirrel-cage. For more information, see the block reference page.
Code generation support has been added for:
Models in Phasor mode
Models employing Ideal Switch mode (under Continuous)
For more information, see Improving Simulation Performance.
The following demos have been added in Version 5.3:
Demo Name | Description |
Synchronous Buck Converter | Illustrates an abstracted version of a synchronous buck converter that uses ideal switching to give faster simulation times. |
AC3 - Sensorless Field-Oriented Control Induction Motor
Drive | Models a sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) induction motor drive with a braking chopper for a 200HP AC motor, using a modified version of the AC3 block. |
AC7 - Sensorless Brushless DC Motor Drive During Speed
Regulation | Models a sensorless brushless DC motor drive with a braking chopper for a 3HP motor, using a modified version of the AC7 block. |
Electrically-Driven Hydraulic Motor Pump | Models a hydraulic pump driven by an electric motor, using SimPowerSystems and SimHydraulics® blocks. |
