power_cableparam
Compute RLC parameters and frequency-dependent model parameters of a group of cables
Syntax
power_cableparam
DATA = power_cableparam(‘new’)
DATA = power_cableparam(DATA)
Description
power_cableparam
opens the Power Cable Parameters app with
the default cable parameter values provided by Simscape™
Electrical™ Specialized Power Systems software.
DATA = power_cableparam(‘new’)
returns a structure variable with
default cable geometry parameters. DATA can be used as a template variable to configure a new
cable geometry and to compute the cable parameters.
DATA = power_cableparam(DATA)
Computes the cable parameters for the
geometric cable parameters given in the CableData structure. Computes the
R
, L
, C
, and G
,
fields of DATA structure as N-by-N matrices where N is the number of phases defined in the
cable arrangement. Returns the WB field of the DATA structure variable containing the
frequency-dependent model parameters for the given frequency-range.
If you specify the DATA structure in the format of R2022a, the function assumes that a cable consists of an inner copper phase conductor with an outer screen conductor, using cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulator material. The R, L, C, and Z parameters are then computed as in R2022a. The G and WB parameters are not computed.
Input Arguments
Output Arguments
The function computes and return the cable parameters on the fields in this table:
Field | Description |
---|---|
| Resistance per unit length matrix of the cable arrangement |
L | Inductance per unit length matrix of the cable arrangement |
C | Capacitance per unit length matrix of the cable arrangement |
G | Admittance per unit length matrix of the cable arrangement |
WB | Frequency dependent parameters of the cable arrangement |
