Default Implementation of a time varying heat sink

Koga is on a distinguished road
I have implemented a constant heat sink for the chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam solver. I did it nearly the same way like they did it in this thread:

http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...rce-solid.html

Now I want to vary this heat sink over the time. I want to configure the heat sink in a table, the same way you do it with the uniformFixedValue boundary condition:

Code:
patch1
    {
        type            uniformFixedValue;
        uniformValue    table
        (
            (   0    300)
            ( 100    500)
            ( 200    300)
        );
    }
So I will have some values for some points in time. For other points in time the values will be computed by interpolation.

How can I implement this?
