Similarly if a balance equation is not satisfied through a solution, it is reported on the message panel. . TEST offers several shortcuts for advanced users. The TEST-Map provides direct simplification of a problem with all the daemons arranged in an intuitive tree structure. An alternative to pressing the Calculate button is to press the Enter key. The balance equations in their customized form as solved by the daemons are prominently displayed along with the system schematic.
TEST produces a detailed report of the solution separating what is given from what is calculated.
A property table is also created that can be directly copied to a spreadsheet for further processing. A visual solution that adheres to the systematic approach can be time taking. TEST provides a way to store the solution by generating a few lines of macros, called the TEST-Codes, which can be used at a later session to restart the solution from the point where it was left off. Unlike most computer programs, TEST-Codes simply summarizes what is given in a problem and is highly readable. Users can collaborate on a thermodynamic project through the use of TEST-Codes.
