Thankyou Sir,

Can you guide me on about checking energy balance as well. As you can see in below image,

if I choose all boundaries then net heat transfer rate = -354W but if I skip either of Vapordomain_tubewall OR Tubewall:1 then the net heat transfer rate = 3W. 

The confusion is, I have inputted constant temperature at tubewall:1 BC to accomodate water side heat flux and choose vapordomain_tubewall(interface) as Coupled. 

If we see the net heat transfer rate then both have nearly same -351W of heat transfer rate.

Should I skip one boundary say tubewall:1?  as we can consider both as same thing? I mean, the whole energy absorbed by interface will go to tubewall:1?
