Swelling Geometry

Hi,
i'm wondering if its possible to simulate heat transfer through few layers of material which are covered with flame stal fire proof paint wich sweel when heated up. dont mind the data for the materials. the only question is how to simulate "growin" geometry? i though about something with dynamic meshing but not sure about that. also thought about thermal expansion but not sure either.
To imagine this geometry you can think about the box which sweel(expands, inflate) during heating up.
asking about ansys ways to do so.

We should assume you have a gadget or part comprised of specific materials, some hygroscopic and others that are not. On the off chance that the hygroscopic materials retain dampness from the general climate, they will balloon, prompting stresses and strains. Ultimately, the hygroscopic expanding might make the whole gadget or part break or misshape.
