Steady state simulation
Section titled “Steady state simulation”Simulation with steady state
Input Values for Steady State
Section titled “Input Values for Steady State”There are two ways to perform a steady state simulation, either enter the desired current and let the simulation calculate the temperature, or enter the temperature and let the simulation find the current.
