Radiative Element Subdivision dialog box (Thermal/SST/ESC/Multiphysics)

Option	Description
Name	Lets you specify a name for the simulation object.
Destination Folder
Simulation Object Container	Specifies the folder in the Simulation Navigator in which the boundary condition will be stored. The list includes the root container and existing folders that you created using the New Folder command. Examples of a root container include Load Container, Constraint Container, and Simulation Object Container.
Folder Manager	Displays a hierarchical listing of existing folders. To create a new folder, right-click any level of the hierarchy and choose New Folder.
Region to Apply Radiative Subdivision to
Group Reference	Lets you apply the subdivision region to a group.For more information, see Group Reference options.
Select Object	Lets you select either the geometry or elements to which to apply the local Element Subdivision setting.Element Selection Filtering lets you limit your element selection to the FE entity you select from the Filter Type list:0D Elements, 1D Elements, or 2D Elements lets you select only elements of that order.Element Edges lets you select 1D elements, the edges of 2D, or 3D elements.Element Faces lets you select 2D elements or the faces of 3D elements.Caution: You must select Element from the main selection Type Filter list to use the Element Selection Filtering options.Excluded lets you remove individual entities from within your selected object.
Stacked Smart Selector Methods	Opens the Smart Selector Methods dialog box where you can specify a progression of smart selection filters.For more information, see Smart Selector Methods dialog box.
Parameters
Element Subdivision	Lets you set the granularity of the element subdivision for computing shadowed view factors. Specify an integer value between 0 and 5. A higher subdivision level yields more accurate radiative conductances at the cost of additional computation time.
Card Name	Displays the associated solver card name for the simulation object.
