Abstract. Electrical engineering courses are featured on combination of strong and weak electricity
and take account into the specialized knowledge of the both. In the design of electricity tests and
new products, it will significantly increase the complexity of test system and decrease teaching
efficiency if adopting the real physical model design. While if simulating the real conditions by
computers, it will achieve the effect that real tests don't have. Therefore, for the electrical
engineering major, computer simulation plays a very important role. MATLAB has various tool
bags and functional modules, including many corresponding electricity equipment models, which
can achieve the analysis and design of motor speed control and electricity system, etc. And it has
high-reliability simulation results and can fully mobilize the initiative of students. To analyze the
application of MATLAB in electrical engineering and its automation, it gives a brief analysis of
MATLAB first, and then analyzes the application of MATLAB in electrical engineering and its
automation, expecting to offer some references for electrical engineering major teaching.
Electrical engineering and its automation has specialized knowledge of motor and its control,
electricity system automation and manufacturing management, etc. It requires students to master
such strong electricity fields as mathematics, computer, motor and high voltage, as well as weak
electricity fields like operation control, research and development field. It has high speciality. In the
specific teaching, although there are some differences in different universities' teaching focuses, yet
all of them require the studies of electricity system and circuit and so on. Adopting traditional
teaching modes will cost a lot and there may be test failures, so it's very bad for teaching. MATLAB
software is one of the large aircraft application software. It has features of multidiscipline platform
and involves a number of fields. It can be applied to Electrical engineering and automation
speciality teaching. This article mainly analyzes the application of MATLAB software in Electrical
engineering and its automation.

The application of MATLAB software in the electric traction system. The electric traction system
drives the operation of machines by motors and at the same time runs according to the relevant rules.
In the electric drive system, the automatic control device is a major part. To control automatic
machinery equipment, it is essential to find the corresponding regular changes, control the
important physical parameters and the rotating speed of motors, and so on. The electric traction
system includes mainly AC velocity modulation, pulse width modulation and so on, the simulation
of which can all be realized by MATLAB software.
The application of MATLAB software in electricity system modeling. The electricity system
belongs to the consumption and production system, including different parts like electricity
generating, electricity distributing, electricity consuming and so on. Transient process, stable state
running and so on need to be analyzed in electricity system, like Electricity System Tidal Current
Energy Computation and short circuit failure computation and so on, which are all basic knowledge
of electricity system learning. During learning, simulation modeling can be realized through the
usage of MATLAB software. In practical work, staff can get the optimal parameters through
simulation modeling by MATLAB software.

unchanged. Primary winding connection and secondary winding connection of synchronous
transformer are chosen to be D11 and Y respectively, of which line voltages are 380V and 150V
respectively, and other parameters default to be unchanged. Simulation time is set to be 0.06s and
simulation experiment can begin after the setup of simulation parameters is done. Simulation results
can be seen in figure 3. Rectifier output voltage is positive, and the change is consistent with the
change of voltage waveform, but Y coordinate is different. If you change the control, the waveform
change in different work situations can be observed.
Figure 3 Changes when triphase current is input into the rectifier at 30 degrees
In the simulation model of resistance-inductance load (resistance value is set to the same of 5
ohm), the load PLC parameter should be modified. L value is set to 0.01H, the trigger angle 60
degrees, the simulation time 0.16s, and starting the simulation model can get the output current and
voltage value. During the current changes, there is a rising period followed by stability. It is applied
in the current loop speed control of double closed-loop speed tuning. As shown in Figure 4, the
simulation model is established in the integrated environment. After 0.3s, the unit step response
signal is input, and the PID controller module is required to be put in as shown in the figure.

Conclusion
In conclusion, this paper analyzes the application of MATLAB software in electrical engineering
and its automation from different aspects. The process of teaching activities of electrical
engineering and its automation involves knowledge of various subjects. In the teaching, students are
required to master research methods of electrical engineering and its automation major on the basis
of mastering basic theory, so as to enhance ability in practice. In simulation, the use of MATLAB
software is conducive to involve teaching categories to achieve the aim of optimizing resource
allocation as well as increasing students' interests and enthusiasm in participation.
