Heat flux continuity

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everybody,
I have a problem with a Heat Transfer study.
I have a heat flux outgoing from the internal surface of external cylinder and I would that this flux enter to external surface of internal cylinder.
I attached the geometry of my problem.
This flux in practice is a radiative heat flux but I don't have the heat transfer module with surface-to-surface radiation. I calculated a radiative coefficient so I can use heat flux equation.
So, what kind of condition should I impose to external surface of internal cylinder?
Thanks a lot
