License Has Numerical Problem Size Limits Verified ((install)) — Ansys Your Product
When starting a solve, ANSYS will output:
In a static analysis, you might be under the limit. However, a nonlinear transient analysis with 50 time steps and 10 substeps per step multiplies the effective problem size. ANSYS counts the peak numerical problem size, not the average.
This option primarily affects nodes created by the mesher, not necessarily remote point nodes.
Note: Hidden elements like , SURF elements for loads, or Weak Springs also count toward the total, even if they aren't visible in the mesh statistics. 2. Compress and Renumber Node IDs
This error message typically indicates that you are using an Ansys Student When starting a solve, ANSYS will output: In
If symmetry had not been possible, her alternative would be requesting an Academic Research license token from her department.
:
Instead of a fine global mesh, use a coarse global mesh and apply local mesh refinement only on critical areas (edges, fillets, contact regions).
If exceeded:
The solver cannot proceed because the numerical matrix it needs to solve is larger than what the license allows. 2. Specific Limitations of Ansys License Versions
license, which has hard-coded limits on the number of nodes or elements your model can contain
Before making changes, confirm how far you are over the limit. In the tree, select the Mesh branch. In the Details window, expand the Statistics section. Check the total number of Nodes and Elements .
The mesh statistics visible in Ansys Mechanical do not show all elements created during solution. Contact definitions generate hidden contact elements, and remote force/pressure objects create SURF154 elements that add to the count but aren't visible in the mesh statistics. This option primarily affects nodes created by the
Ansys uses a flexible licensing model, but not all licenses are created equal. The phrase refers to a cap placed on the computational "size" of your model. Typically, this is measured in one of three ways:
Typically 16,000 nodes. C. Geometry Limitations (DesignModeler/SpaceClaim)
Select non-critical faces, bodies, or edges that do not experience high stress or fluid gradients.
