  ANSYS Fluent: I have a heated surface having constant heat flux boundary condition exposed to the atmosphere and I wish to understand how surrounding environmental temperature changes after certain time.
  
  I am doing a 2D steady state analysis. Where can i find the option to view the results at different time or instance during post processing? Thanks!

  Steady state means the solution when there is no change in any variable with time. The solution does not capture how the model changed from the initial conditions to the steady state values.
  
  If you want to view the results at different times on the way to the steady state values, that is called a Transient analysis.

  Do you have any tutorials in setting up transient analysis with steady state values? Thank you!
