Hi,

the pipeline tutorial explains workspace quite well: 
https://github.com/jenkinsci/pipeline-plugin/blob/master/TUTORIAL.md#allocating-workspaces
The default workspace created by 'node' is 'locked'  to a single run of the 
appropriate node part. It is not cleared by default.
If you need more than one  workspace on a node 'ws' and/or 'dir' may be 
handy.
