When an author places a conflict in a novel, as an example, the conflict is of course a problem or a trouble for the characters. As some writing coaches will say, "there is no story if there is no trouble or a major conflict". Within the novel a struggle of sorts grows out of the interplay of opposing forces and this creates interest, suspense, and yes, tension.
