Which macro should I use to define the heat flux of a wall ? DEFINE_HEAT_FLUX or DEFINE_PROFILE ?

2.3.11. DEFINE_HEAT_FLUX
2.3.11.1. Description
You can use DEFINE_HEAT_FLUX to modify the heat flux at a wall. Despite the name, a
DEFINE_HEAT_FLUX UDF is not the means to specify the actual heat flux entering a domain from the
outside. To specify this type of heat flux, you would simply use a DEFINE_PROFILE function in conjunction
with a heat flux thermal boundary condition. In contrast, a DEFINE_HEAT_FLUX UDF allows you to modify
the way in which the dependence between the flux entering the domain and the wall and cell temperatures
is modeled.
