Error Message—Radiation View Space Error

Issue

After setting up and starting a radiation analysis, the following error message is issued: 

Radiation View Space Error

Solution

The view space error is an estimate of the extent of coverage by element faces for all "viewable" surfaces in a radiation calculation. At the onset of a radiation analysis, Autodesk® Simulation CFD tries to ensure that there is a view factor between all viewable surfaces in the model. If the mesh is too coarse, especially around a tight corner, it may not be possible to compute every view factor.

To resolve this issue, add more mesh in the suspect region. Note that this may increase the analysis time and memory requirements.
