Automated mode for multiple case simulation: instead of manually changing values to add a case, this mode
will do the exact without user intervention. The manual mode is still avialable too.
You can now perform a simulation study by changing any of the parameters under the Study scenarios below:
Study parameters 1:
Tube outer diameter, Tube number of passes, Tube length, Number of tubes, Baffle spacing
Study parameters 2:
Uses kern tube counts to iterated between Shell diameters to obtain the number of tubes for a given number of passes.

User can set the study parameters and the software will automate the calculation steps and add the final result to summary screen
where the changes between each can can be detected.
This case study mode will automate the manual input for trial and error to optimise results.
