Hi guys,
I want to plot the heat fluxes at surfaces. I could not find the option for the heat flux in the drop down list. Do you know how to plot it?
Thanks!
The first step is to request 'Nodal' output for the desired surfaces - at the same frequency as you request the overall Field output - when setting up the model. You can do this when creating particular Surface Monitors/Outputs - or when you're creating individuals Boundary Conditions (click the pencil icon to the right of 'Create Linked Surface Output'). This will allow additional variables (including nodal heat flux) into the results database.
When reading the results into Post, with the AcuSolve .Log reader, you may be able to click check-boxes for additional output types. See if that gives you access to Heat Flux in the nodal results.
You can also try the Convert tool, to create H3D file, enable Extended Output - and you should see Heat Flux in the list of variables to convert.

Hi acupro,
Would you please make a video for the first step to reques nodal output?

In monitors, click surface and select the desired face.
Thank you!
