calculate voltage command
Purpose
This command calculates the voltage difference between two meshes.
Warning
GPU support for this command has not been tested and may not work as expected.Syntax
calculate voltage keyword keyword/value pairs
Keywords |
Description |
|---|---|
id |
user-assigned name for the calculate voltage command |
obligatory, brace-enclosed list of mesh ids
available options:
{mesh1,mesh2, ...} |
|
id of the mesh that is used as ground
if not provided, a ground with 0.0 V is used
|
Examples
calculate voltage id Voltmeter probes {lower_battery, upper_battery} ground other_battery
calculate voltage id Voltmeter probes {lower_battery, upper_battery}
Access the calculated values above via:
id_Voltmeter.lower_battery or id_Voltmeter[1] id_Voltmeter.upper_battery or id_Voltmeter[2]
Description
This command evaluates the differences between the voltages of the meshes specified by the probes keyword
and the mesh specified by the ground keyword. If the ground keyword is not used, a voltage with a default value of
0.0 V is used. Thus, this command emulates the behavior of an voltmeter device. It should be used together
with the enable_electrical_conductivity command.
Output information
Two different options are available for getting the output of this command: see the example above. The output of this command is automatically written to the file simulation_data_aspherix.csv.
