I considered the cooling plate adiabatic (so no heat transfer to the ambient). The temperature is normally rise in the cells (which are the heat generators) and the heat should be transfer by conduction to the cover and then from the cover to the cooling plate and fluid. The cooling plate has 2 channels, with two inputs and outputs, since the fluids have a velocity and it is constantly running, heat should be absorved and take away via the fluid by convection. I didn't add any heat convection coefficient, insted I added the fluid velocity, so Ansys should calculate the convection coefficient based on the velocity, input temperature and fluid properties.Â
