I vs U component: is the resistance included?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

In my model of an induction motor, the stator slots are modeled by Multi-Turn Coil domain with Coil excitation as Circuit (current).
In the power supply circuit, I use I vs U component for the coupling. I wonder if I must add a resistor to model the the resistance of the coil in the circuit or I vs U component already includes that resistance?

Regards,

Hi. I have the same question. I wish someone would answer this. I am modelling a 3D transformer and have studied the e-core transformer model from the applications gallery which uses a primary and secondary resistances to represent the winding resistances . If I do not put a resistor in series with the I vs U component then I get an error. If it is necessary to use a resistor then I wish the help documents would mention and emphasize this.
