2. Theory:
a. Draw a circuit diagram of RL circuit (in theory itself) and write the derivations for
voltage across inductor and current through inductor.
RL Circuit:
Let the initial current through the inductor L be zero. The expressions for the voltage across
inductor and current through inductor can be derived by using Laplace transform as below.

3. Procedure:
1) Using Simulink Library Browser select Simpower systems toolbox
4) Select R & L and then R & C from elements library and place in the file
5) Select voltage, current measurements, multiplexer, scope, circuit breaker and place in
the file
6) Complete the circuit and simulate
a. Simulated RL circuit
b. Simulated RC circuit
5. Calculations: With the same values of R, L, C as used in the simulation, calculate the
values of current through and voltage across inductor and capacitor respectively. Show
that the calculated results match with simulated results.
