Simscape™ provides an environment for modeling and simulating physical systems spanning mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and other physical domains.

Simscape models can be used to develop control systems and test system-level performance. We can extend the libraries using the MATLAB® based Simscape language, which enables text-based authoring of physical modeling components, domains, and libraries.

water tank modeling in simscape

I want to model a simple tank with water flowing out of it. Which has level sensor and connected to a controller. When the sensor gets activated(means minimum value of tank has been reached), it sends signal to Actuator to stop the outflow. I have…
