Commercial Use of Salome CFD

[konstan]

Dear Community,

I am currently working on a CFD Project for my bachelor thesis. This Project is done for a company, therefore it definitely classifies as a commercial use.

My Question now simply is: Am I allowed to use the Salome CFD Software (code_saturne) for my commercial CFD project?

I wasnt able to find the answer to my question on the Salome website, therefore I came to this forum, I would appreciate your Help!

Thanks in advance!

Best regards

check this thread.

Non-commercial use

I confirm that your use of SALOME is not considered commercial. You may use SALOME as you wish. If anyway you ever wish to use it for commercial purposes, this remains possible, the only constraint being to pay for a PyQT license (PyQT cannot be used for commercial purpose unless you pay a PyQT developer licence).

thanks franco,

in addition, I now found a Note on the code_saturne website that states, it is distributet under the GNU GPL 2 Licence, which would then allow a commercial usage.

So that resolves the question.

keep in mind that as mentioned in my cited comment you need to pay the pyQT licence
