Nu_fluent=BOUNDARY_HEAT_FLUX(f,ft)*x[0]/(k*NV_MAG(A)*(F_T(f,ft))-Tbulk));

is the equation which i got the inf to use but here what does boundary heat flux mean and what does it give

my model is a shell and tube heat exchanger so i need inner nusselt number and outer nusselt number values i need to extract from fluent and need to store these values in a file so what is the utility i should use to get nusselt number value
