2 Quick Start

Running a Demo Model


An interesting demo program provided with Simulink models the
thermodynamics of a house. To run this demo, follow these steps:

1 Start MATLAB. See your MATLAB documentation if you’re not sure how to
do this.

2 Run the demo model by typing thermo in the MATLAB command window.
This command starts up Simulink and creates a model window that contains
this model.

When you open the model, Simulink opens a Scope block containing two plots
labeled Indoor vs. Outdoor Temp and Heat Cost ($), respectively.

3 To start the simulation, pull down the Simulation menu and choose the
Start command (or, on Microsoft Windows, press the Start button on the
Simulink toolbar). As the simulation runs, the indoor and outdoor
temperatures appear in the Indoor vs. Outdoor Temp plot and the
cumulative heating cost appears in the Heat Cost ($) plot.
