      For SIwave 2020R2 and earlier versions, an Icepak Classic installation from the Fluids installation package is required to start the Icepak solver. Make sure this is installed. The env var mentioned in the error message will be set. Verify this in the system environment variables. Its value will be the install folder (AWP_ROOT202 = C:Program FilesANSYS Incv202). As from SIwave 2021.1, the Fluent solver will be launched from the ANSYS AEDT installation, thus an Icepak Classic installation will not be required.
