Description

This model represents an ideal transformer with transform ratio 1. The model has no real effect but allows for domain changes (one port having another domain as the other). The model represents a power continuous relation between the efforts and flows of both its ports. The causality is always mixed: one port has an effort causality while the other has a flow causality:

 

p1.e = p2.e

p2.f = p1.f

 

or:

 

p2.e = p1.e

p1.f = p2.f

Interface

Ports

Description

p1, p2

Input and output port of the simple transformer.

Causality

 

p1 notequal p2

The causality of both ports must be different.
