ANSYS - Export code

ANSYS - Export code

ANSYS - Export code

(OP)
Good day people of eng-tips.com

I currently have an ANSYS simulation that requires computational power far above that which I require. I do have access to a computer that can handle such calculations, but I am not permitted to install ANSYS on that machine. Is it possible to export the code? My project is done in workbench with the explicit dynamics sysyem in 3D.
I read somewhere that you could export the Jscript, run it on the other pc, and import it into ANSYS when you are done.
Is this possible? If so, could someone please explain it to me, or direct me to a link that explains it.
Another option, would be to make use of cloud computing to solve this problem, but I have zero funds available for this. Is there maybe a trail run on one of these sites, or is it just a pipe dream of mine?

Thank you for any help

Hi,

I don't think it is possible without installing Ansys, or at least the license manager to be able to borrow license(s).

There may be cloud computing services, but I don't think they'll be free...

I do have a license to use the License manager installed with ansys. Do you think that is the way to go?

I mean installed on the machine you want to use for your computation

Hi Fr1ki

Bear in mind that if you did manage to install ANSYS on the powerful workstation you would still require a HPC licence to run your analysis in parallel and take advantage of the extra computational resource.

If you are an academic you could apply to either national or international agencies that provide free access to powerful HPC resources for researchers undertaking computationally intensive analyses. Here's a link to one such agency : http://www.prace-ri.eu/

If you are not an academic you will probably have to pay to access HPC resources. If this is not an option, you should attempt to reduce the computational cost of your analysis by simplifying your model as required.

Good luck,
Dave
