INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXPERIMENT NO. 2


1. Aim: Study of step response of series RLC circuit for different damping co-efficients
using MATLAB SIMULINK.

2. Theory:
a. Draw a circuit diagram of series RLC circuit (in theory itself) and solve the circuit using
KVL.

b. Arrive at the final equation to be modeled with SIMULINK.

c. Derive the second order differential equation for step response of given circuit and find
the values of damping co-efficients for overdamped, underdamped and critically damped
response.

A simulink model can be formed by using the above equation, from which the current i,
voltages across resistor, inductor and capacitor can be observed.

3. Procedure:
1) Using ‘SIMULINK’ browser, select different blocks

2) Select a ‘STEP’ source for applying DC voltage to the circuit

3) According to the equation of i(t) select 6 ‘gain’ blocks

4) From ‘continuos’ block set place derivative and integration blocks in the model file

5) Select an ‘adder’ block

6) Place a ‘scope’ for displaying the output for current, voltage across each resistor,
capacitor and inductor

7) Connect the circuit and assign proper values to the electrical components

8) Using different values of source, R, L and C , simulate the circuit and obtain the
output

4. Attach the following printouts on separate page each-

a. Simulated model

b. Graphs for underdamped response of current, inductor voltage, capacitor voltage and
resistor voltage.

c. Graphs for overdamped response of current, inductor voltage, capacitor voltage and
resistor voltage.

d. Graphs for critically damped response of current, inductor voltage, capacitor voltage
and resistor voltage.

5. Calculations:

a. Solve the second order differential equation for the chosen values of R,L and C (any
one response) for any one variable [i(t) or Vc(t) or Vl(t) or Vr(t)]

b. Compare the theoretical response obtained in (a) above with the practical one and
comment on it.

c. Calculate the values of damping coefficients using different values of R, L, C to


obtain the three damping conditions as shown in graphs.

6. Conclusion: Write appropriate conclusion based on the step response of RLC circuit.
