Calling variable or convert T(x,y,z) = >T(x,y,t) between models

Hi: Please help! I'm very stuck with a quite straightforward problem.

I've got two models:

1) Model 1: 3D Heat Transfer Stationary
2) Model 2: 2D Teat Transfer Time Dependent.

How can I call T(x,y,z) from the model 1 to T(x,y,t) in the model 2 If I want, for example, a source temporal variable Q(x,y,t) with the same shape. i.e. Q(x,y,t)=10*T(x,y,z=t)? The problem is how to change the z axis for the "t" temporal coordinate. How to input a source like this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have only 4.3a so here is a model, check carefully the linear extrusion definition on mod1, and the solver initial conditions of study 2

Good luck

Thank you Ivar! But I've got the 4.3 version. Can you upload some pictures of how is the model set? Specially how to set the source with the extrusion operator and when replacing the z coordinate for the t coordinate.

Thanks again!

Hi Ivar, another question. If the model 2 gemoetry is 2d, why there are points 1, 3 and 5 in the extrusion for gemoetry 2? Geometry 2 must be a flat square, and there are only 4 points.

Hi

in 2D you define the origine, the X direction and a Y direction, for source and destination (you fill in the 4th point if you do a 3D mapping
