Have a simple question - when I apply a total heat flux boundary condition to two surfaces, does each surface get the heat flux value I put in? e.g. if I put in 300W as the total heat flux and pick two surfaces, does inventor split the 300W into 150W and apply 150W to each of the two surfaces?
"Total heat flux" refers to the fact that the heat flux is the total for a given surface and not assigned on a per unit area basis like it is in the "heat flux" boundary condition. When applying a total heat flux boundary condition, that total heat flux magnitude will be applied to each surface you have selected.
For example, if you have two surfaces selected and then assign a total heat flux of 300W, each surface will be assigned 300W netting 600W of heat.
