Hello,

I am doing a heat transfer simulation of a tool placed in an autoclave.
The heat transfer is only through convection (no radiation) and the temperature in the autoclave is slowly rising.
Real simulation time is 28 minutes and the timestep is 0.001 s
The element count of the whole mesh is 9.5 Million elements.

Actually I just want to know what a system you would recommend for this job.
A system with much memory or a system with much computing power?
What is the average time a system should work on this job?

Thanks for any answer!
