Capacitor

Power variables

flux: Electrical current \(i\) (A)

effort: Electrical Voltage \(v\) (V)

Arguments

label : str

Capacitor label.

nodes : ('N1', 'N2')

Capacitor terminals with positive current N1->N2.

parameters : keyword arguments

Parameters description and default value.

Usage

capa = Capacitor('capa', ('N1', 'N2'), C='1e-9')

Netlist line

electronics.capacitor capa ('N1', 'N2'): C=1e-9;

Example

>>> # Import dictionary
>>> from pyphs.dictionary import electronics
>>> # Define component label
>>> label = 'capa'
>>> # Define component nodes
>>> nodes = ('N1', 'N2')
>>> # Define component parameters
>>> parameters = {'C': '1e-9',  # Capacitance (F)
...              }
>>> # Instanciate component
>>> component = electronics.Capacitor(label, nodes, **parameters)
>>> # Graph dimensions
>>> len(component.nodes)
2
>>> len(component.edges)
1
