I'm testing out an idea I had developed on Paul Falstad's simulator of power surges and how realistic are they within the context of a simulation? So, my first successful surge on LTSpice also expands its output towards infinity only if the simulation's time step is no greater than 1 micro second. At 100 nano seconds, it escalates to infinite outcome even faster than at 1 micro second.
For comparison, here's the power supply plus its inductive load all by itself without the amplifying subcircuit...
BTW, my best simulation on Paul Falstad's simulator dies the instant trapezoidal approximations are turned off on all inductors and capacitors. Naturally, I did not reset anything within Control Panel under Tools. I just left it set at its default of "modified trap' which produces the same results as does trapezoidal. But with 'Gear' Default Integration Method, I get the following results...
At first, I thought I was making a distinct discovery of parasitic transients which used to plague DC transmission lines of the Edison Power Company in New York city a century ago in which a fellow by the name of Steinmetz had to be called in to fix the problem. But now, I don't know if I am studying electrical surges or numerical surges?
