To install TMG Correlation in a Simcenter 3D or NX environment, you will need the following:

  • A valid Simcenter 3D Thermal Multiphysics, Simcenter 3D Space Systems Thermal, or Simcenter 3D Electronic Systems Cooling license from a Siemens license server.
  • A valid TMG Correlation license from the Maya HTT License Server, which can be installed on a Windows or Linux computer.
  • Simcenter 3D or NX installed and working on a Windows computer. To install it, consult the Simcenter 3D or NX installation documentation on Siemens Support Center.
