Download RPL Engine Workbench

Native builds for Windows 11 (64-bit) and Apple silicon macOS. Both start in built-in trial mode with no license key; a purchased key later activates the complete product in place. It is one product and one purchase — download the build for the computer you run.

Signed by Rocket Propulsion Laboratory LLC and notarized by Apple, so it opens without the unidentified-developer warning on a standard Mac.

Install on Windows 11

  1. Check policy and integrity. This public beta is not code-signed. Verify the SHA-256 below before opening it. If Windows or your organization blocks unknown publishers, do not bypass that policy.
  2. Run the installer if permitted. Double-click RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0 Windows x64 Beta Setup.exe.
  3. Complete setup. Accept the license agreement, choose the destination and optional desktop shortcut, then launch RPL Engine Workbench. The default per-user installation does not require administrator rights.
  4. Trial or activate. The app starts in trial mode. Bought a license? Open Tools → License…, click Activate license…, and paste the key from your purchase email.

Verify the download in PowerShell: Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 "RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0 Windows x64 Beta Setup.exe" — the value must match the Windows SHA-256 below.

Install on macOS

  1. Open the disk image. Double-click the downloaded .dmg. The app is notarized by Apple, so on a standard Mac it opens without the unidentified-developer warning. Managed Macs may apply their own policies.
  2. Drag to Applications. Drag RPL Engine Workbench onto the Applications folder shown in the window, then launch it from Applications or Spotlight.
  3. Trial or activate. The app starts in trial mode. Bought a license? Open Tools → License…, click Activate license…, and paste the key from your purchase email.

From the folder containing the DMG, verify the exact artifact with shasum -a 256 "RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0.dmg", hdiutil verify "RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0.dmg", spctl -a -t open -vv "RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0.dmg", and xcrun stapler validate "RPL Engine Workbench 1.0.0.dmg". After copying the app to Applications, verify it with codesign --verify --deep --strict --verbose=2 "/Applications/RPL Engine Workbench.app" and inspect the authority with codesign -dvvv "/Applications/RPL Engine Workbench.app".

The Apple notarization ticket is stapled to the distributed DMG. These checks verify file integrity, Developer ID signing, notarization, and code-signature consistency; they do not validate engineering accuracy.

To evaluate the results, follow the 15-minute evaluation: solve the built-in reference case and compare against the published LMAE reference project.

Trial & licensing

The trial is time-limited and feature-limited (watermarked PDF, no DXF/VTK export, reduced solve/mesh limits, one steady-state Flowfield solve per launch), and is the same on Windows and Mac. A purchased license unlocks the capabilities and limits of the chosen plan in the app you already installed. RPL Engine Workbench is preliminary engineering software; it does not replace qualified engineering judgment, testing, safety review, or export-control compliance. See the License FAQ.
