Purpose

Check the active license and understand the limits relevant to a simulation.

Steps

1. Read the license label on the right of the status bar: DEMO, BASIC, or PRO.

   

2. In Demo mode, click Buy license to open the purchase page. With Basic, click the license label for upgrade options.
3. Check that the license supports the required cell count, CPU count, and physics before preparing a large case.

Inputs and units

Input or value	Meaning	Units
Mesh / CPU counts	Demo allows up to 250,000 cells and one CPU core. Basic allows up to 5,000,000 cells and 5 CPU cores. Pro supports up to 100 CPU cores.	Integer counts
License tier	Basic provides standard physics; Pro enables advanced physics including CHT and non-Newtonian fluids (Power law).	No physical units

Limitations

• The available controls and limits depend on the active license. A Pro license is required for conjugate heat transfer, multiple volume domains, and non-Newtonian fluid modeling. Power law currently supports incompressible, isothermal, single-fluid laminar calculations.
