The SCC has succeeded in integrating the ANSYS program suite for use by KIT students into the contract. From now on 1500 network licenses are available for education and training. The computer must be directly in the campus network or connected via VPN during use.

KIT students can obtain the software free of charge via the SCC software store. They will then automatically receive all necessary information via email.

After registering with ANSYS, you have full access to the ANSYS Student Portal with a variety of information, tutorials and training materials.

The program suite is used to solve linear and nonlinear problems from structural mechanics, fluid mechanics, acoustics, thermodynamics, piezoelectricity, electromagnetism as well as combined problems (multiphysics). For the design of electronic and electromechanical systems the ANSYS Electronics Simulation Software (ANSOFT EDA Systems) is available.

However, the Academic Teaching licenses are subject to certain size limitations:

• 256000 nodes / elements - Structural, Thermal & AUTODYN.

• 512000 nodes / elements - Low Frequency Electromagnetics

• 1024000 Nodes / Elements - High Frequency (Full Wave) Electromagnetics

• 512000 Nodes / Elements - Fluid Dynamics (CFX & FLUENT)

This offer is an additional offer and complements only the research license ANSYS Academic Multiphysics Campus in the student area.

Academic Program(s) which contain the term "Associate" in the Program Name may only be used for non-proprietary industry related research, degree and/or non-degree related research, student instruction, student projects, and student demonstrations.

Academic Program(s) which contain the term "Research" in the Program Name may only be used for non-proprietary degree and/or non-degree related research, student instruction, student projects, and student demonstrations.

Academic Program(s) which contain the term "Teaching" or “EduPack” in the Program Name as well as any free student downloads may only be used for student instruction, student projects, and student demonstrations.

Academic Program(s) which contain the term “Academic” or “Tools” but do not contain the terms "Associate", "Research", “EduPack” or "Teaching" in the Program Name assume the terms of use of the Academic Program(s) it is used with.
