The Property Control component provides direct OD control over GSP properties and is for advanced users only. During simulation the property parameter value is simply set to the specified value, ignoring interference with any other processes such as iterations or model control schedules. This could possibly interfere with (thermodynamic) relations or equations!
This component not only enables the direct setting of component properties, but can also make free state variables of these properties when the Control input value option is set to Free state. This latter option enables users to turn any property into a variable; note that adding an extra free state variable into the equation set requires the addition of an error equation (e.g. an equation schedule component).
