Marco,
The constraints you mentioned may limit you when simulating transient
effects. As an example, we have simulated the ultrasound wave propagation,
and this required of about 1M nodes. However, 50K can be sufficient for
simple simulations of static effects.

Darius

Dear members,
I work in a government research facility in Brazil and am on the verge 
of acquiring the Ansys Multiphysics software package.  Due to budgetary 
conditions we can afford an option that restricts usage from 50K nodes 
for structural, thermal and acoustic simulation to 128K nodes for CFD 
simulation.  Can someone inform me if this configuration is enough for 
MEMS and microfluidics applications?
