Gradually activating a geometry (domain) for a heat transfer problem

To explain my question, please assume that we have ONE cube and we are heating it from the top part. I like at t=0, only the top surface is activated for the heat transfer problem. Little by little, the activation domain increases up to the final time of the study at which all the domain is fully activated.
It is important to mention that I do NOT like to use two cubes close to each and use a Thin Thermal Barrier in between (I do not like to use SWEEP or for loops to change the location of the Thin Thermal Barrier).
I also tried to use Deformed Geometry. However, the computation time is too much and I prefer not to use it for my case.
I greatly appreciate it if you mention whether there is any way in COMSOL to make a domain partially inactive for a heat transfer (in solids) problem.
