Abstract
PSPICE can relatively accurately model hysteresis and saturation in magnetic cores. However, because the user is unable to set initial flux conditions, a lengthy period of computation time may be required to reach a steady-state condition. Also, PSPICE frequently causes unnecessarily high-resolution time stepping thus slowing down simulation, and creating a huge amount of data. This paper presents a method to estimate the minimum simulation time required to reach a steady-state, suggests a method to establish a steady-state more quickly, and introduces a MATLAB transformer model to speed up simulation. Forward and flyback dc/dc converters are simulated using the developed MATLAB model.
