Hey,

Recently got baited into thinking I could do AM-DED process using the student version. Sadily it still requires the ANSYS Additive Suite. 

Is there any way I can do the transcient analysis another way without the Additive Suite or is it possible to buy a personal license for the additive suite?

You'll be able to add the licence to the Campus system, please contact your account manager to discuss: they can also double check what you're doing requries that or any other licence(s).

Thanks for the reply Rob but the university does not have a license for the additive suite.

Below showing the solver output of me directly needing the additive license.

Once again if anyone haves an alternative method to get a transicent analysis or some sort of analysis by hand given certain information would be helpful in trying to get some sort of thermal profile for the DED additive process.

Hi,

Please see if the following post helps: Additive manufacturing process (DED) simulation help (ansys.com)
