Challenge

To create a Simulink model of Doorbell using solenoid block.

Aim:

To create a Simulink model of Doorbell using solenoid block.

Simulink :

Simulink is a MATLAB based graphical program for modeling. Simulink blocks in MATLAB provide the interface for the function callers where we can call a function to get the result and plots for the function.

Objective:

1. Whenever the switch is closed the electromagnet receives electrical power from the battery and pulls the metal arm to hit the bell producing sound.

2. Create a situation where the switch is closed for 2 seconds and then released. Observe the physical movement of the plunger.
