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 ('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 ).
