NODE

Node defined to be the space node.

Command Default

No space node (no radiation to space).

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.
