  Dear all,
  I would like to know if someone has successfully enabled the GPU native solver for Fluent 2023R1 within Workbench. I would like to automate some runs via the DOE module and use the GPU acceleration options from Fluent.
  Thanks in advance for your support.

  The GPU solver requires an Enterprise level licence, so I'm not sure it will unless you can switch the Fluent licence call in WB. Given the WB Fluent launcher doesn't have this option I'm not hopeful. You may find Optislang/Twin Builder to be a better choice for controlling the runs.

  By any chance, is there a way to change the specs for the Fluent Launcher? I do have access to an academic license with the Enterprise Level. Also, thanks for pointing out the Twin Builder alternative. I will take a look at it.

  Standalone, yes, but I can't see an option in Workbench. Read the restrictions in the User Manual, I suspect even if you can change the licence the residual/monitor reporting will be an issue.
