See VControlledCap.zip on the Device Models & Subcircuits Page.

Includes Library File (.LIB), LTspice Symbol (.ASY), and a JPEG
showing how it was developed.

I don't have time to play with this just now, but one quick question:

Given that C is a variable capacitor, set C to 1F and charge it to 1
volt. Now change C to 0.5F. What is the new voltage?


I haven't tried that. Since it _is_ a capacitor, it'll depend on
whether a simulator treats capacitors as charge-controlled devices or
otherwise.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
