I am solving a problem for radiation in participating medium and need to know the heat flux across the medium. I can see the results for incident radiation and blackbody radiation intensity among other things, but there is no option for heat flux in the drop-down menu when I try to look at the data. How do I find this?

The heat flux into a domain is the sum of the fluxes over all the boundaries plus the heat generated/absobed in the domain itself.
I think you need to look into the boundary integrations.
