Hi every one, In my problem i know heat dissipation from the surface i.e Q, but i dont now the heat flux. But in fluent i dont know how to give Q directly instead of heat flux, can anyone tell me how to give the Q (HEAT DISSIPATION ) directly instead of heat flux.

Thank you in advance

With regards
Subhas

I am not sure what is heat dissipation but you could use formula q = Q/S

q - heat flux
S - surface of heat exhanger
