I am new to Simscape. I would like to find a minimalist way to display voltage and current at various points in a circuit. Ideally just floating text labels with no 'wires' or connections visible. For example "Vbe 0.4v" or "Ic 20mA"

Currently I am using 3 standard blocks to achieve this and the circuit looks cluttered.

Is there a way to do what I want with some coding?

  • If you have no connections, what do you expect the measurements to relate to? Simulink isn't an app interface, it is a coding interface - the clarity of where signals are connected is integral to how it works. Please show a screenshot in an [edit] to your question to clarify what you have now vs what you would like. – Wolfie Nov 08 '19 at 16:47
  • There will be connections, but they won't be visible. I can't attach an image because this is my first question on Stack Overflow. – John Spence Nov 08 '19 at 19:59

Currently, you have several options, some involve more work. Here are two ideas:

A) If your circuit is 3-phase, you can use the Busbar block and enable Frequency and Time solver in the Solver Configuration block, to display the initial voltages (and also power flows). This uses the Load-Flow Analysis feature starting R2019b. Check out this simple example.

B) Connect Voltage Sensor blocks to the nodes you want to sense voltage on, and connect the voltage PS output to a Simulink Display block, which will display the numerical value in real-time.
