SubscriberHi all. I am running a Steady-State Thermal simulation involving conduction and radiation. I have previously obtained solutions without any problem. Yesterday, I added some Surface-to-Surface radiation. No change to the mesh. Then, I faced this error when I tried to run Solve:
The element option SOLID291 was either not ordered with this ANSYS installation or the appropriate product was not selected for this session.
This document says SOLID291 is not included in ANSYS Mechanical Enterprise PrepPost, which is the version I have. How can I work around this? Why did it work previously and not anymore? Can I run the simulation with a different element option (not SOLID291)? Thanks in advance!

SubscriberThank you for your help. How should I selected the license for the Solver? Sorry I'm quite new to ANSYS.
How I've usually done it is I click on my Steady-State Thermal setup within Workbench and it takes me automatically to Mechanical Enterprise PrepPost. How do I go to Solver instead?
Also, if SOLID291 is included in PrepPost, would you happen to know why I got that error in the first place?
Sorry for the many question, I appreciate your help!
