I am trying to simulate the deposition of layers of a powder under a heater. A layer is deposited at an initial temperature, then allowed to heat for a while. Then another layer is deposited at the initial temperature and allowed to heat, and so on. The boundary condition is mixed convection/radiation. I use a dynamic mesh UDF to add a layer of powder by deforming the geometry, but I need to set the temperature of the new layer.
I understand how to set the temperature using a DEFINE_PROFILE, but that would rely on having that specific property defined by the boundary condition, that is, I think I would have to have a constant temperature BC.
Is there a way to use something like
F_PROFILE(face_thread,boundary_thread,i)=temp
to set the cell temperature/density/thermal conductivity arbitrarily? How would I know which value of i to use, since that is supplied by the function hook?

Thanks in advance.
