Electrical Circuits

Choose optimization objectives and design channels compatible with Electrical Circuits.

Where to find it

System Solver → Optimization

How to use it

Define an objective, select the design controls and their bounds, and add constraints before running the optimization study.

Objective quantities

• *
• cir.V(node)
• cir.I(element)
• cir.P(element)
• cir.P(balance)
• cir.V(node).real
• cir.V(node).imag
• cir.V(node).abs
• cir.V(node).phase
• cir.I(element).real
• cir.I(element).imag
• cir.I(element).abs
• cir.I(element).phase
• cir.S(element).real
• cir.S(element).imag
• cir.S(element).abs
• cir.S(element).phase
• cir.Q(element)
• cir.S(balance).real
• cir.S(balance).imag
• cir.S(balance).abs
• cir.S(balance).phase
• cir.Q(balance)

Result

Compare the final objective, constraint values, design and termination reason together.

Troubleshooting

Limits on iterations or evaluations can end a search before an optimum is reached. Inspect feasibility and termination reason, then verify the final design with a solve.
