Radiative cooling

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, I would like to simulate the effect of radiative cooling on a material: more in detail, I have a source at 77K whose radiation is focused on a material and completely absorbed by it. In this conditions, I would like to study the thermal and mechanical effect of this radiation on the material. I thought the heat transfer module could be the best way to do it, but I'm not sure I can set the temperature of the heat source. Could you please suggest me which is the best way to do it? Thank you very much!
