PLECS Power Electronics Circuit Simulation software
This page provides summary information on software that has been approved for faculty/school-level use.
If you need support using this software, please reach out to the faculty/school listed below for guidance.
Software: PLECS Power Electronics Circuit Simulation software
Faculty/School it is used in: Engineering and Physical Sciences
What is it used for: Simulation software used by students for projects to analyse power electronic circuits where their thermal management schemes can be developed and verified. This software is also used by students to investigate the principles of power converters and to program real time microcontrollers for controlling power converters. It is used to reinforce students' understanding on the analysis of power electronics and the practical development of its control scheme.
Integrations: No integrations with other University of Leeds systems or tools.
Support: Faculty/school resolve support issues for staff and student users, with help from the supplier where necessary.
Used for either summative or formative assessment, or both: Yes
