On the command line interface of a particular bwHPC cluster a list of all available ANSYS versions can be inquired as followed
 
<pre>
 
$ module avail cae/ansys
 
-------------------------- /opt/bwhpc/kit/modulefiles --------------------------
 
cae/ansys/15.0
 
 
------------------------ /opt/bwhpc/common/modulefiles -------------------------
 
cae/ansys/15.0_bw
 
 
</pre>
 
</pre>
There are two licenses. The module <pre>cae/ansys/15.0_bw</pre> uses the BW license server (25 academic research, 69 parallel processes) and <pre>cae/ansys/15.0</pre> uses the KIT license server (only members of the KIT can use it).
+
The cae/ansys modules are using the KIT license server and are reserved for members of the KIT only.

== Loading the Module ==
 
If you wish to load a specific version of ANSYS you can do so by executing e.g.:
 
<pre>
 
$ module load cae/ansys/15.0_bw
 
</pre>
 
to load the version 15.0 with the BW license.
 
 
You can load the default version of ANSYS with the command:
 
<pre>
 
$ module load cae/ansys
 
</pre>
 
 
== Start commands ==
 
To start an ANSYS Mechanical session enter
 
<pre>
 
$ ansys150
 
</pre>
 
To launch an ANSYS FLUENT session enter
 
<pre>
 
$ fluent
 
</pre>
 
The following command is to run the ANSYS Workbench
 
<pre>
 
$ runwb2
 
</pre>
 
Online documention is available from the help menu or by using the command
 
<pre>
 
$ anshelp150
 
</pre>
 
As with all processes that require more than a few minutes to run, non-trivial ANSYS solver jobs must be submitted to the cluster queueing system.
 
<br>
 
 
= Examples =
 
== ANSYS Mechanical batch jobs ==
 
 
The following script could be submitted to the queueing system to run an ANSYS Mechanical job in parallel:
 
{{bwFrameA|
 
<source lang="bash">
 
#!/bin/bash
 
module load cae/ansys
 
export MPIRUN_OPTIONS="-prot"
 
export MPI_USESRUN=1
 
cd Arbeitsverzeichnis
 
export MACHINES=`/software/bwhpc/common/cae/ansys_inc150/scc/machines.pl`
 
ansys150 -dis -b -j lal -machines $MACHINES < input.f18
 
</source>
 
}}
 
 
working_dir could start with $HOME or $WORK .
 
 
To submit the example script to the queueing system execute the following (32 cores, 1 GB of memory per core, max. time 600 seconds) :
 
<pre>
 
msub -l nodes=2:ppn=16,pmem=1000mb,walltime=600 Shell-Script
 
</pre>
 
 
 
== ANSYS Fluent batch jobs ==
 
== ANSYS Fluent batch jobs ==
  +
see http://www.scc.kit.edu/produkte/6724.php > "Kurzanleitung" > "#FLUENT-Aufruf_auf_den_Linux-Clustern_des_SCC"
The following script "run_fluent.sh" could be submitted to the queueing system to run an ANSYS Fluent job in parallel using 4 cores on a single node:
 
{{bwFrameA|
 
<source lang="bash">
 
#!/bin/sh
 
#MSUB -l nodes=1:ppn=4
 
#MSUB -l walltime=0:10:00
 
#MSUB -l mem=16000mb
 
 
## setup environment
 
export MPI_USESRUN=1
 
 
## generate hosts list
 
export run_nodes=$(srun hostname)
 
echo $run_nodes | sed "s/ /\n/g" > fluent.hosts
 
echo "" >> fluent.hosts
 
 
## load ansys module
 
module load cae/ansys
 
 
## start fluent job
 
time fluent 3d -rsh=ssh -g -pib -cnf=fluent.hosts -i test.inp
 
</source>
 
}}
 
To submit the example script to the queueing system execute the following:
 
<pre>
 
$ msub run_fluent.sh
 
</pre>
 
<br>
 
   
 
== ANSYS CFX batch jobs ==
 
== ANSYS CFX batch jobs ==
  +
see http://www.scc.kit.edu/produkte/3852.php > "Kurzanleitung" > "#CFX_auf_den_Linux-Clustern_des_SCC"
With the script "run_cfx.sh" you can submit a CFX job to the queueing system to run in parallel using 8 cores on two node with the start-method 'Platform MPI Parallel':
 
{{bwFrameA|
 
<source lang="bash">
 
#!/bin/sh
 
#MSUB -l nodes=2:ppn=4
 
#MSUB -l walltime=0:10:00
 
#MSUB -l mem=32000mb
 
 
## setup environment
 
export MPI_USESRUN=1
 
 
## load ansys module
 
module load cae/ansys
 
 
## start job
 
cfx5solve -def test.def -part 8 -start-method 'Platform MPI Parallel'
 
</source>
 
}}
 
To submit the example script to the queueing system execute:
 
<pre>
 
$ msub run_cfx.sh
 
</pre>
 
<br>
