How to run Workbench simulation .wbpj fies one by one automatically

Pierre1 · April 13, 2015, 02:07

I usually need to run several Workbench CFX simulations (several Workbench files and each one has a design table to run) over night. I don’t like to set up an alarm to wake myself up to click on the button ‘Update all design points’ every time.

I’m wondering is there way to run different .wbpj workbench files one by one automatically?

Have a look at the remote solver manager, or alternately batch scheduling software. I used PBS Pro for a few years and it was pretty good, there is also LSF and a few others.

For simple stuff you can just do a script/batch file to queue up a few jobs. Have a look at running CFX from the command line in the documentation.
