Power System Blockset

Creating Your Own Library

Simulink gives you the possibility to create your own library of Power System Blockset blocks. To create a library, in the File menu choose New Library. A new Simulink window named Library:untitled opens. Now copy the Nonlinear Inductance block of your circuit7 system and the Nonlinear Resistance block of your circuit8 system into that library. Save this library as my_PSBlibrary. Next time that you develop a new model, you will add it to your personal library. You can also organize your library in different sub-libraries according to their functions as it is done in the powerlib library.

One advantage of using a library is that all blocks that you copy from that library will be referenced to the library. In other words, if you make a correction in your library block, the correction will be automatically applied to all circuits using that block.
