Description

The total number of Heat Radiation components is determined by the $\mathrm{Nodes}$ parameter.

The following image is an example with Heat Radiation components to explain the behavior of Multi Radiation component.

 Radiation type Radiation geometry Use Correction input Constant - false or true External input - false or true General - false or true Use References Surrounded object false or true Two parallel plates false or true Two long concentric cylinders false or true Concentric spheres false or true

The following table is the image of radiation geometry when Radiation type is Use References.
