unknown

Block Category: Optimization

Description: The unknown block works in conjunction with constraint blocks to solve equations for unknowns using Newton-Raphson iteration. For each unknown, there should be a constraint block that is fed directly or indirectly by the unknown. The maximum iteration count, error tolerance, and perturbation are established under the Implicit Solver tab in the dialog box for the System > System Properties command. For more information, see Solving an implicit equation.
