Determining the heat generation profile of magnetic nanoparticles

Hello All,
I am relatvely new to COMSOL and still learning the capabilties of the modeling software. I wanted to know if it was possible to obtain the heat generation capability of magnetic nanoparticles inside of a polymer. For context here is the data I have and how it was obtained.
I have nanoscale mangetic nanoparticles distributed within a rectangular polymer matrix. I place this polymer sample withing a high frequency (782 kHz) magnetic field and obtain surface temperature measurements using a IR camera. I wanted to know if it was possible given my polymer properties, thermal history, boundary conditions and magnetic field conditions, that I can model the heat generation profile of my magentic nanoparticles. Or instead if I know the magentic field strength, can I model the heating instead?
From my limited experience, it appears modeling nanoscale magnetic nanoparticles is compuationally difficult (Correct me if I am wrong). Intead I plan on applying perhaps a distributed heat generation accros the whole polymer matix. Since the nanoparticles are in a distributed state this seems reasonable.
So, can I recreate the heat generation profile of the magnetic nanoparticles given the things I listed?
Any help or direction woud be greatly appreciated!
