Template:TPS ParamSweep Tab

This tab allows the user to perform multiple calculations to generate a set of data. The data can be copied and pasted into external programs such as Excel to allow the data to be plotted and analysed.

Use tools on this page to generate tabular data on clipboard from parameter sweep
ParamSweep...
Method	AdjustT	The chosen independent variable is Temperature.
	AdjustQMl	The chosen independent variable is flow of an individual species.
MinTemperature / MinT	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustT. The minimum temperature of the final solution in the data set.
MaxTemperature / MaxT	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustT. The maximum temperature of the final solution in the data set.
SelPhase... (only visible if Method = AdjustQMl)
Filter	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl. Allows user to optionally shorten the Phase Selection list (SelPhase) by entering in some letters from the desired phase.
PhaseFilter	List	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl. List of available phases to choose from. The list will not show all phases if user has entered some letters in the Filter field above.
SelSp... (only visible if Method = AdjustQMl)
Filter	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl. Allows user to optionally shorten the Species Selection list (TargetSpAdjust) by entering in some letters from the desired species.
TargSpAdjust	List	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl. The user can select a single species from the list of all species in the {{{TPS}}} database to have its flow varied. The list will be limited to those in the selected phase (SelPhase) and will not show all species if user has entered some letters in the Filter field above.
MoleBasis	Tickbox	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl. If this box is ticked, user specifies the minimum and maximum mole flow of selected species. If this is not ticked, user can specify these flows in terms of mass flow.
MinSpMassFlow / QmMin	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl and MoleBasis is not ticked. The minimum mass flow of the selected species in the final solution.
MaxSpMassFlow / QmMax	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl and MoleBasis is not ticked. The maximum mass flow of the selected species in the final solution.
MinSpMoleFlow / QMlMin	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl and MoleBasis is ticked. The minimum mole flow of the selected species in the final solution.
MaxSpMoleFlow / QMlMax	Input	Only visible if Method = AdjustQMl and MoleBasis is ticked. The maximum mole flow of the selected species in the final solution.
StepSize	Input	The step size between each data point. If the user changes this value, then SysCAD will automatically adjust DataPoints (Below). (=(Max-Min)/(DataPoints-1))
DataPoints	Input	The number of calculations to perform/rows of data to generate. If the user changes this value, then SysCAD will automatically adjust StepSize (Above). (=(Max-Min)/StepSize + 1)
IndVarRanges		If the user clicks on this button, the inputs for the independent variable limits will be reset to their default values. (Applied to the temperature option only).
PlotDataCreate		If the user clicks on this button, SysCAD will perform the requested calculations based on the chosen parameters, to generate the required data.
PlotDataTable		If the user clicks on this button, SysCAD will perform the requested calculations based on the chosen parameters, to generate the required data. SysCAD will also copy the generated data to the clipboard, allowing it to be pasted into an external program such as MS Excel.
Select Dependent Variables for Output
SelectSpecies / SelectSp	Tickbox	Allows the user to select species to be reported. If this option is enabled, the SpForPlot tab will appear.
ShowActCoeff / ShowAC	Tickbox	Only visible if the SelectSp option is enabled. If this option is enabled, the activity coefficients of the species selected on the SpForPlot tab will be reported.
HideZeros	Tickbox	Only visible if the SelectSp option is enabled. If this option is enabled, the outputted table will be filtered so that only species which have a non-zero value in any of the calculations in the sweep will be shown in the table.
ResultsType	(only visible if the SelectSp option is enabled)
	Flow	The results generated will include the flows of the selected species in the final product stream.
	Frac	The results generated will include the overall fractions of the selected species in the final product stream.
	PhaseFrac	The results generated will include the phase fractions of the selected species in the final product stream.
SelectedSpCount	Display	Only visible if the SelectSp option is available. The number of species selected on the SpForPlot tab.
Select Properties For Output
PropertiesCount / PropsCount	Input	The number of properties to be included in the reported data set.
PropX	List	The property to be reported from the list of available properties. Note: This field is only visible if the entry for NumPropsForOutput is greater then 0. If there is one property then X=1. If there are two properties, then X=1 and X=2, etc.
