Reply To: How do I tell how many threads a person can use in Ansys?

Each solver can only use 4 cores or processes or threads, without the need for additional HPC licensing. If you try asking for more than 4 you'll encounter license errors as there are no additional HPC licenses owned under your account. You may refer to this posted document which details some changes to the Academic licensing at 2021R1. https://download.ansys.com/-/media/customerportal/getting-started/2021-r1-licensing-updates-academic.pdf?la=en&hash=33F5DD9B4043D045079306084FBC811D87233A9C
