Is it necessary to follow the design specifications when using Aspen for cycling?

When using Aspen for looping, is it necessary to follow the design specifications in order to enable such looping?
I understand; it’s not necessary. If there are accurate initial values, direct calculation is sufficient; otherwise, methods like tearing flow have to be used
It doesn’t seem to be a design requirement to use a tearing flow, right?
The answer above is correct; it’s not mandatory per the design specifications, but tearing flow is necessary. When the process is simple, it may not be provided, but the system will handle it on its own. Having proper design specifications is often quite helpful for convergence.
