Computer configuration for COMSOL

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Now my computer running COMSOL will show the disk is not enough, want to buy a good point of the computer to run COMSOL, we have not recommended? Now I don't know the computer configuration. What is the relationship between computer configuration and mesh, degrees of freedom and so on?

For a primer on the factors that influence how much memory it takes to solve various types of models, see this link: www.comsol.com/blogs/much-memory-needed-solve-large-comsol-models/

Short of buying a new computer, you will find some advice on various techniques that will reduce memory usage here: www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1030/

If you should consider buying a computer, for hardware recommendations, see this link: www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/866/

Best regards,
