Hello,
I am currently simulating a tube bank, so I read the anys tutorial in order to have some guidance, but I am having some trouble with the analysis of the results, at the begining I thought I was wrong, but after taking a closer look at the tutorial, they have the same results, in the figures attached can be seen that the minimun temperature of the system is 300 K in the boundary conditions, and even so the simulation gives a minimun temperature of 277 K.
By the way when checking the heat fluxes (Reports-Fluxes-Total Heat Transfer Rate), it shows like if there wre no fluxes in the periodic boundary.

If anyone has an explanation for this results I would appreciate any help.

Thanks
