It usually takes a lot of time to have a working methodology for these applications. So don't expect that the experts are willing to share their knowledge and do your homework.

Those articles are quite old. Nowadays this is done in star-ccm+ for conjugate heat transfer easy meshing. You can upgrade from star-cd to star-ccm+ to be up to date.
