HFSS15: Specifying the Number of Processors

If you want to use more than one processor, you can specify the number of processors in the HFSS Options dialog box. By default, this value is set to 1.

To modify the number of processors used when solving:

1. Click Tools>Options> HFSS Options.

2. Click the Solver tab.

3. Type a value for Number of Processors.

This setting affects all HFSS projects for the current user and machine. However the solver considers the number of processors to be optional and reverts to a single processor solution if a multiple processor licence is not available. With a multiple processor licence, the solve, as well as near and far field computation is affected.
