More investigation around inductors #785

Open samreid opened 2 years ago

samreid commented 2 years ago

From https://github.com/phetsims/circuit-construction-kit-common/issues/774#issuecomment-973318310, we switched to 1 inductor. This issue is about working toward the root cause of the multiple inductor problems. May not need to be done before 1.0.

We would like to try higher resistances in the wires to see if it reduced the problem? But @kathy-phet says the priority is getting the sign changes fixed. If some corner cases like this have bad behavior, we may have to list it as a known issue.

@samreid will also check if there is a sudden spike in the inductor values that is causing the problem.

Do we need the initial bias step?

samreid commented 2 years ago

On hold until we address the phet-io specific issues.

I don't think this should be part of the current sprint, @arouinfar can I remove it from the milestone?

kathy-phet commented 2 years ago

I agree this isn't a priority for current Jan 2022 sprint on PHET-iO.

samreid commented 2 years ago

We decided this wouldn't impact any of the DC milestones.
