Introduction

------------

This open-source software includes simulation models for an induction motor, a synchronous reluctance motor, and a permanent-magnet synchronous motor. The motor models are simulated in the continuous-time domain while the control algorithms run in discrete time. The default solver is the explicit Runge-Kutta method of order 5(4) from scipy.integrate.solve_ivp. Various control algorithms are provided as examples. The documentation is available here:

https://aalto-electric-drives.github.io/motulator/

Installation

------------

This software can be installed using pip: 

```bash

pip install motulator

```

Alternatively, the repository can be cloned:

https://aalto-electric-drives.github.io/motulator/installation.html

Usage

-----

The drive system, controller, reference sequences etc. are easy to configure. As a starting point, example scripts and Jupyter notebooks can be downloaded here:

https://aalto-electric-drives.github.io/motulator/auto_examples/index.html

New system models and controllers can be developed using the existing ones as templates.
