Altair HyperWorks Licensing 2023 Release Notes
New Features
- Product License Features
- The following Altair HyperWorks applications and tools are available
under Altair Units (AUs) licensing:
- EEvision

- EEvision Pro
- Basic edition, plus some additional plug-ins (module navigator, module editor, shield and twist visualization, and end-circuit visualization). This product requires 55 AUs (units are stacked).
- EEvision DocGen Add-on
- An add-on for automatic document generation. This product requires 50 AUs (units are stacked).
- EEvision Diff Add-on
- A comparison tool for two EDB models. This product requires 50 AUs (units are stacked).
- EEvision SignOff Add-on
- An add-on for team sign-off capability. This product requires 50 AUs (units are stacked).
- StarVision PRO
- A debug solution for advanced electronic SoC (Silicon-on-Chip). This solution requires 50 AUs (units are stacked). The table below lists additional features and the units required:
- SpiceVision Pro
- Creates schematics, circuit fragments, and design documentation from Spice netlists. The table below lists additional features and the units required:
- GateVision PRO
- Graphical gate-level netlist analyzer. The table below lists additional features and the units required:
- RTLvision PRO
- Visualization of large RTL designs, including third-party IP and reused blocks. The table below lists additional features and the units required:
- HyperMesh CFD
- A solution centric streamlined user interface which provides
end-to-end workflows for aerodynamics, aeroacoustics,
internal flow, multiphase flow, thermal and moving mesh
simulations.
Feature Description Units Required HyperMeshCFD A solution centric streamlined user interface which provides end-to-end workflows for aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, internal flow, multiphase flow, thermal and moving mesh simulations. 21 - Inspire
- Four features are introduced to Inspire 2023 as
following:
Feature Description Units Required InspireGeometry Enable the Geometry capabilities in Inspire. 15 InspirePrint3D Set up model for Print3D. 15 InspireSimSolid Use SimSolid as structural analysis solver. 30 InspireFluidsSolver Integrates easy-to-use CFD exploration tools in the Inspire simulation driven design process. 30 InspireFluids Integrates easy-to-use CFD exploration tools in the Inspire simulation driven design process. 30 - Inspire Form
- A new feature, InspireRadiossSolver, is introduced in v2023 to replace InspireFormIncrSolver license feature. This feature is required to nvoke Tryout GUI and run incremental analysis using Radioss solver. This product requires 30 AUs.
- Inspire Extrude
- A license feature, InspireOSSolver, is added. It is required when OptiStruct is used for structural analysis. This product requires 15 AUs.
- Inspire Mold
- A license feature, InspireOSSolver, is added. It is required when OptiStruct is used for structural analysis. This product requires 15 AUs.
- Flux
- A new feature, Flux2DSolver, is introduced to support Flux2D analysis. 15 units are required when running Flux2D solver for one core. Multi-core usage follows the Solver In-App Licensing table.
- FluxMotor
- A new feature, FluxMotorFlux2DSolver, is introduced to support Flux2D analysis in Flux Motor. 15 units are required when running Flux2D solver via FluxMotor for one core. Multi-core usage follows the Solver In-App Licensing table. The FluxMotor GUI interface now requires 21 AUs.
- Altair License Manager
- Altair HyperWorks 2023 products require the Altair License Manager 15.2
or the latest version. The License Manager is compatible with previous
versions of Altair software.Note: Altair HyperWorks products that have upgraded the ALSDK to v15.1 no longer work with Altair License Manager 14.5.1 or older.
For more information, reference the Altair Units Licensing section in the Altair HyperWorks documentation.
Enhancements
- Updates to Existing License Feature Names
- Several product license feature names have been updated. See details in the Altair Units Licensing section of the Altair HyperWorks documentation.
