Simscape Custom Models and Components

Greetings,

I have been reading/watching content on how to model batteries via YouTube and MathWorks. However, what remains unclear to me is how to create the needed files. I am running MatLab 2019a/Simulink/SimScape/SimScape Electronics. I downloaded the models produced by Dr. Gazzari to examine the overall structure. When I create a model, I am failing to find any kind of indication on how/where to create the script file in which I can delcare the salient characteristics of the components I wish to create.

Once I do accomplish this, I will then be able to link it to my file.m in which I have created some lookup tables.

Cheers,

There is no functionality to directly create a ssc-file. So you should use the "Save as" function in MATLAB and change the file extension to “.ssc” in order to save an ssc-file.

Another possibility is to create a copy of an existing ssc-file and change the content of it, so you can easily customize an existing component.
