Thanks a lot to Mr. Sun for the prompt reply. For my application, I need a 3D heat generation profile from FDTD which can be calculated from your suggested Power absorbed (advanced) analysis group. But to plug the heat generation profile into the Heat module using import heat feature, we need the generation file to be in a specific format as function spatial coordinates. 

How can I generate the heat generation profile in that specific format so that I can import it into the Heat module properly using the Power absorbed (advanced) analysis group?
