Radiation load in the Simulation workspace

Radiation is the transfer of energy between the model and the environment, and can become the dominant form of heat transfer in situations with high temperature changes or low flow rates. Radiation loads only account for energy exchanged with the environment. Radiation across the model (from part to part, or surface to surface) is not considered.
