Hi there, I'm new to CL. Did already several experiments with good results. But what about this... Simulations with coil on AC seems to add DC-offset to current. (Same circuit with capacitor seems te work well) Does someone has a suggestion? Thanks in adv. https://www.circuitlab.com/circuit/s8874q4py6xw/rlc-inductor-ac/ |

I think you'll find it behaves normally if you add a bit of series resistance. This is the "ESR" in the inductor spec panel. As you have it now the transient response lasts forever so the offset. Add some resistance and the transient response dies off with the time constant L/R leaving just the steady state response which will be a sine wave lagging the signal generator |

Hi Foxx, good thinking! I added 1R ESR and increased "start time" to 235ms (5*time constant). Works just fine. Thx https://www.circuitlab.com/circuit/s8874q4py6xw/rlc-inductor-ac/ |
