Heat removal boundary condition

I have to simulate induction heating phenomena of a cylinder in 2D with a Cooling arrangement inside the same cube that ( cooling tube arrangement are not visible in 2D ) through a coil so the heat generated is compensated through cooling thus preventing the cube to be overheated.

Simpy, If I want to define 30 % of the heat loss from the heat produced inside a work piece then how It could be possible.

Hi Ishant,

You can setup an Integration Model Coupling variable to be the total heat produced in the part. However, if the heat loss is always 30% of the heat produced the part will heat up indefinitely. If you use a convection boundary condition to represent the cooling arrangement that will be better since the heat loss will scale with temperature.
