Description

The MMF Sensor block represents an ideal magnetomotive force (mmf) sensor, that is, a device that converts the mmf measured between any magnetic connections into a physical signal proportional to the mmf.

Connections N and S are conserving magnetic ports through which the sensor is connected to the circuit. The physical signal port outputs the value of the mmf.

Use the N and S ports to connect the sensor in parallel with the block (or several blocks) where you want to measure the mmf. The physical signal port outputs the value of the mmf. Use a PS-Simulink Converter block to connect this port to Simulink^® blocks, such as Scope or Display.

Ports

Output

MMF — Measured mmf value, A

physical signal

Physical signal output port for the mmf measurement.

The port name is not visible in the block icon, but you can see this name in the underlying source file by clicking the Source code link in the Description tab of the block dialog box.

Conserving

N — North terminal

magnetic

Magnetic conserving port associated with the sensor north terminal.

S — South terminal

magnetic

Magnetic conserving port associated with the sensor south terminal.
