A computer-implemented method for simulation of an electrical circuit with circuit components by at least one computing unit includes mapping a coupling of the substate representations in a coupling equation system for exchange of calculated coupling variables between the subcircuits. The method also includes calculating, in an evaluation step, at least one stability parameter on a basis of the coupling equation system, and deciding, in a selection step and depending on the at least one calculated stability parameter, whether the current separation of the electrical circuit into subcircuits will be used as the basis of the simulation. The method further includes performing, after a successful selection, the simulation of the electrical circuit by calculating the substate space representations on the at least one computing unit.

Computer-implemented method for simulation of an electrical circuit

A method for real-time testing of a control unit with a simulator is provided. The simulator calculates a load current and a load voltage as electrical load state variables via converter control data and via an electrical load model that does not take into account current discontinuities caused by the converter, and transmits at least a portion of the load state variables to the control unit. A control observer is additionally implemented on the simulator that calculates at least the load current as a load state variable taking into account the converter control data and an observer load model. The observer detects a zero-crossing of the load current and a current discontinuity caused thereby from the calculated load current, and upon detection of a current discontinuity the observer calculates an electrical compensating quantity.
