Coupled Analysis Licensing Requirements

The licenses needed for System Coupling analyses are listed in Table 2: Applicable licenses for participants in System Coupling analyses

To run coupled analyses using System Coupling, you need either one license for each participant solver or a Multiphysics Licensing Bundle (shown in bold text in the table below). No additional license is needed for the System Coupling infrastructure itself.

Note, however, that Ansys EnSight is required for the postprocessing of System Coupling’s interface results. If you are using a Multiphysics Licensing Bundle that does not include an EnSight license (shown in italicized text in the table below), you will need a separate EnSight license to visualize co-simulation results.
