Dimmer with resistive load

Diagram

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

This model demonstrates the behaviour of a dimmer with phase-angle control with resistive load.

The reference voltage is prescribed by a trapezoid between zero and full voltage. The voltageToAngle block calculates the necessary phase angle, which is processed by the Signal2mPulse adaptor, applying the firing signals to the triac.
