Products: Abaqus/Standard Abaqus/Explicit Abaqus/CAE
Capacitance elements:
allow the introduction of concentrated heat capacitance at a point;
are associated with the temperature degree of freedom at a node; and
have a capacitance that can be specified as a function of temperature and/or field variables.
The heat capacitance is associated with the temperature degree of freedom at the node of the element. You specify the capacitance magnitude, 
(density × specific heat × volume). Specify capacitance, not specific heat. You must associate this capacitance with a region of your model.
