Software & Version
Fluent 2024R2
*This example was taken from this version but is not necessarily limited to this version.
Description/Cause
The error was a windows related error that was narrowed down to be related to the Microsoft MPI. The Microsoft MPI was set as the default MPI in 2024R2, which is why this did not occur in 2024R1. This issue has been reported to Ansys.
