Ruiz, J.-R. R.; Espinosa, A. G.; Romeral, L. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2010
Ac-powered contactors are extensively used in industry in applications such as automatic electrical devices, motor starters, and heaters. In this work, a practical session that allows students to model and simulate the dynamic behavior of ac-powered electromechanical contactors is presented. Simulation is carried out using a rigorous parametric…
