Re: heat at wall
 

If you select Define -> Models -> Energy

And you activate Energy then go to Boundary Conditions -> wall , and here you go!!!

Thank you, but I have to write the heat by friction between both surfaces.Do you know how do it?

Re: heat at wall
 

I think you have to calculate the heat because of friction before and then enter the heat as Heat Flux or Heat Generation Rate, probably at both walls. I have a similar problem. Two rotating discs that are in contact, and there is heat flux because of friction. But i haven't reach that point yet.

I am not sure about my answer. Good luck!! Anni
