Remote Solver options can be found on the local machine under Tools > Flow Simulation > Tools > Options.Ĭommunication between local and remote machines is done through a TCP port over the shared network. If using shared network licenses of SOLIDWORKS and/or Flow Simulation, the remote machine will not utilize any additional licenses.If using a single node-locked license of SOLIDWORKS and/or Flow Simulation, activation is not needed on the remote machine.While solving, the local machine will still utilize both the SOLIDWORKS and Flow Simulation license. Only the local machine will need access to the SOLIDWORKS and Flow Simulation license. While SOLIDWORKS and Flow Simulation must be installed on the remote machine, it does not require authorization. SOLIDWORKS and Flow Simulation need to be installed on both the local and remote machines, and both must be on the same version and service pack. NOTE: The calculations can only be performed on one remote machine Setup: Remote Machine - All solution iterations.Local Machine - Meshing, creation of the flow results file and pre-processing prior to first iteration calculation.The processing is shared between the local and remote machine:
