Set Simulink variable with m file

Hello,

To be able to see how my Simulink model responds to differenct variabel values i want to set the Variable value with an m file(function).

The m file runs a for loop. In this for loop i collect data from an excel sheet wich i loaded into my workspace. Now i would like to change my Simulink model variable to the value from my excel file.

for a=1:10

          HeatFactor(a,2)   %the HeatFactor is an array, i retrieve data (a number)
          from the second kolumn
          simOut = sim( 'ABC', 'SaveOutput', 'on' )
          results = simOut.get( 'yout' )

          a=a+1;
  end

So before i simulate i want to transfer the value i retrieve from HeatFactor(a,2). To the Variable F in my Simulink model (i used a constant block for this and set the value to F).

Also i would like to set the result of the simulation, the value i get from 'yout' into and array list. One that keeps counting and not one that get's reset everytime i speak to my model 'ABC'.

Thanks,

Kris

You can use the set_param command within a mfile script to change a parameter in your Simulink model. These answers and this link may be helpful.

Regarding getting "yout" into an array, you simply have to make your "results" variable a cell-array (or something similar).

results{i} = simOut.get( 'yout' );
