Hi,

I'm trying to use the Boundary Heat Source to simulate a thin layer heat source in a phone model. I know when I give it a certain power, let's say 10 W, it will heat both up the objects on both sides of this boundary. I'm wondering is either side of the heat source receive a power of 5 W or 10 W? Is there any way to create a heat source that only emits heat in a single direction?

Thanks,
Zhenhuan
