Bundle License
1. CFD+Mechanical Premium
2. CFD+Mechanical Enterprise
For a bundle license premium module of one physics will be bundled with the premium module of other physics (Premium module of one physics cannot be bundled with enterprise module of other physics). Same goes for enterprise bundle.
For a bundle license only a single user can use the software at a time. Though all the physics available in the license can be used simultaneously but this is not to be conveyed to the customer as suggested by ANSYS.
Pre Post License
If a client is adding one extra seat for a particular physics then a Pre-Post License can be pitched for that physics separately. This license will not include the solver.
HPC License
Helps to utilise more than 4 cores (default) that reduces solution time.
