Throughput doesn't work

Why the throughput doesn't work when I am using FloWork module but it works when I am using the fixed resources? Any suggestion?

Could you possibly upload your model? I'm assuming you're referring to some kind of statistics collection, but it's hard for us to know anything about what's going on without seeing your model. Thanks!

trial.fsmThis is the example where I couldn't compute the troughput while I actually just follow the tutorial step by step

You are building the model with generic Fluid objects, not FloWorks, so FloWorks templates will not work with the basic Fluid objects.

Okay meaning that I only can use FloWork features for a flowork model only?

Correct. FloWorks is a separate module for FlexSim developed by 3rd party developers, meaning its features are separate from the FlexSim default Fluid objects. To use FloWorks for its enhanced fluid system calculations, you'll need to download the FloWorks module and obtain a license from them. Once that is done, you can use FloWorks in FlexSim to collect accurate fluid data. Hopefully this helps.
