gsphelp  Starting a simulation

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

After having built or opened a GSP model and having specified simulation input data parameters and maps, simulations can be run. Before simulation, the model configuration and component data are checked. If the model is invalid, the calculation is canceled and an error is reported. If the model is valid, five types of simulation calculations can be run, depending on the case type.

Design point

Design point series

Steady state point

Steady state series

Transient

 

Before starting a simulation, it is advised to first consider which parameters are of interest for output and specify the output parameters in the Output tab sheets of the component editing forms.

 

Use the StartSimulationButtonEnabled ('play') button (shortcut key F9) to start the simulation from the project toolbar. To start the simulation a Case must be selected in the project tree in order to enable the button (when disabled it looks like StartSimulationButtonDisabled).
