How to export boundary profiles
 
I would like to export a heat flux I calculated with one FLUENT model and use it as a boundary condition for a second model. DO you have any idea how to do it?

Hi

Go to Define-->profiles-->write

Choose the wall, and specify the "Total Surface heat flux"

Then read it into your new case.

Regards

Once I have created the profile, I read it in the new case file but it does not appear in the options for the BC like it would for a udf. Is there an other step I need to take. Thank you

Never mind, to work, the boundaries need to have the same name. It works just fine once this is fixed. Thanks for your help AAA
