Statement
Solver HPC licensing applies wherever a solver is not started from an Altair GUI and a SolverHPC feature is present. The per-core draw falls by tier (30.00 for the first 4 cores, then 1.60, 0.80, 0.60 ... 0.04 per core). Each feature follows its own core count and the draw stacks; OptiStruct optimization runs multiply the per-core draw by 1.5. Example: three Radioss jobs on 48 cores draw 90.8 units.
Applies when
Batch or cluster solver runs.
Applies to
AcuSolve, AltairMfgSolver, EDEMSolver, FekoSolver, FluxSolver, HyperFormSolver, HyperLifeSolver, MotionSolve, OptiStructFEA, Radioss.
