Dear Rohith,

Technically there is no limit but naturally having an enormous number of elements generated will make the calculation inefficient as it may take weeks or months to run.

Especially when a project may have updates that may require to remesh and recalculate, we strongly advise maintaining a manageable size of the number of elements.

As you would expect that highly depends on the project you want to simulate, the level of details, type of calculation, etc..

Hi Stefanos Papavasileiou

Is there any maximum limit for the number of elements in a model?

The total number of elements in my model is around 12 lakh elements.
