I finally figured it out by running several tests. The add/set_heat_transfer requires Watt (nondimensionalized).

The add_explicit_heat_transfer_rate requires (nondimensionalized) Joule. However, it must be kept in mind, that the function works at particle time scale so if values are converted from Watt to Joule they must be multiplied by the particle time step.
