space#

Mapdl.space(node='', **kwargs)[source]#

Defines a space node for radiation using the Radiation Matrix method.

APDL Command: SPACE

Parameters:

node: Node defined to be the space node.

Notes

A space node is required in an open system to account for radiation losses.

If using SPACE with the ANSYS Multi-field solver (MFS), you must capture this command in the command file using MFCMMAND. This step is necessary because at the end of each field computation, this command is unset.
