Pressure simulation on assembly

Devin Ford Jun 11, 2018 2:02 PM

Hi I am fairly new to SolidWorks and attempting to run a pressure vessel simulation on a tank that I designed. The tank is 3 pieces (two end caps and the shell). I am having trouble starting the simulation. It will only allow me to run a Static Simulation. What am I doing wrong here?

Hi Devin,
Pressure Vessel study requires a Simulation Professional or Premium license. What you are describing would indicate you are using a SOLIDWORKS Premium license that only has access to Static study. Do you have a license of Simulation Professional or Premium to use? This might be something that you would need to query your internal CAD Admin to see if there are licenses available for these.

  Thank you. I realized I don't have the correct license and am now attempting to create the pressure simulation with static analysis
