The simulation worksheet (LKS) is a customized worksheet devised for the development of a steady-state simulation system of equations. In a simulation worksheet, equations pertaining to simulations are systematically listed, quantities involved are clearly identified and put into specified columns. The development of a customized simulation worksheet is very useful in speeding up the development of a system of equations to be solved using the existing simulation technique such as the Newton—Raphson method which can be generalized to handle any simulation problem using a standard procedure.
