I understood about HTC, but one thing is that if I calculate HTC theoretically and if I calculate using ANSYS, the values for both are really different. It maybe because ansys is using reference temperature and different heat flux to calculate. 

Same is the thing with heat flux as my theoretical calculations based on books formula and ansys values are quite different. 

Is it possible to add these HTC and heat flux formulas using custom field functions inside ansys at this stage when almost the solution is stable enough and run the simulation for some more iterations so that ansys calculates HTC & heat flux at our formulas?
