Is saturation modeled for inductor in analogLib library?

BaaB

I would like to see if saturation is modeled for inductor in analogLib library. Could you tell me how to check that?

Thank you for help?

    No. Inductor part from analog.lib is ideal inductor. it does not have associate core model. You need to build your inductor with magnetic core (available from magnetics.lib) . Below is the simple circuit file to see the effect of saturation

    *** INCLUDING BHCurve.net ****
    * source DCIND
    L_L1         N00136 0  10 
    R_R1         AC N00136  1m TC=0,0
    I_I1         0 AC DC 0Adc AC 0Aac
    +SIN 0 12 100K 0 0 0
    Kn_K1         L_L1      1 E13_6_6_3C85

    .END

    Below is the resultant BH loop

    Here is Schematic representation of above circuit
