Hello,

I just started to learn about CONVERGE. When I run converge an error comes up ''CONVERGE executable is invalid''. Could anyone help me?

Regards,
Amin

Amin,

Can you provide some more details on how you are trying to launch the CONVERGE solver?

Best regards,

Tristan

Hi,

I click on ''run Converge'' and then ''run serial version of converge''. I am very new. First I start to launch converge example ''engine sector diesel SAGE''. There is also an error in the message log: The CONVERGE job aborted sometime after launch. Status = 1.

Thank you for your help.

Amin,

If you are trying to launch the CONVERGE solver from inside CONVERGE Studio, you need to go to Edit->Preferences->CONVERGE and make sure everything is configured correctly. The CONVERGE solver is packaged separately from CONVERGE Studio.

Best regards,

Tristan

Amin,

You'll need to search your system to find the CONVERGE executable, or ask your IT team for help. If you're not using user defined functions then the UDF directory is not important.

Best regards,

Tristan

Amin,

I apologize, but as I don't have access to your system, I don't know where it is installed. On a Windows machine it will usually be at C:\Program Files\CONVERGE, but apart from that I can't offer much guidance. It all depends on who installed the software.

Best regards,

Tristan

I have successfully run the serial CONVERGE solver in Converge Studio, but don't know how to set the core number of CPU, the CPU occupation is less than 40%. How to make the settings to fully use the CPU of computer?
