Gambit 64 bit
 
Dear All, I running Fluent and Gambit on a Windows 64 bit M/C. However, the Gambit installation is a 32 bit. I have tried to search for a 64 bit install for windows but I was not successful. I found only Linux based 64 bit Gambit. However, I dont have access to a Linux machine ... Advice will be highly appreciated. Regards

Use a Linux in a virtualbox, try Fedora or CentOS on 64 bits, your Gambit should work.

I bet you could install a 32 bits Windows in a virtualbox and try to use your 32 bits Gambit.

All the best,

Paul

Thanks Paul, but I am interesting in large mesh (I need more than 4 GB of Ram) so the 32-bit option is not gonna work. Gambit 32 bit works smoothly on my 64-bit windows :).

I will try the virtualbox and let you know accordingly...

If you have access TGrid is available in 64-bit! Otherwise you could try meshing the domain in separate parts and merging in Fluent (very painful and must ensure that nodes on merging faces are identical).
