Coupling 2 systems in Comsol

Hi all,
I need to couple a solid state metal hydride bed with a PEM fuel cell... The metal hydride bed is cylindrical and has been modelled as axisymmetric 3D model.. whereas only a small part of a fuel cell (corresponding to one turn of flow field channel) has been modeled containing one inlet channel, a current collector and an outlet channel in place of complete fuel cell to reduce computational efforts as a 2D model.. Now i need to thermally couple both the systems. Can someone please help me out as to how to proceed .. the amount of heat released by the fuel cell has to be sent to the hydride bed to release the hydrogen which is used by the fuel cell..

The metal hydride model is axial symmetric 2 D.. not 3D..
