We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

I just tried it and it was possible.  It wouldn't be possible to apply both heat flux and convection to the face of the underlying elements, but Mechanical applies them both with surface effect elements making it possible.  I made a cube and applied a heat flux of 1000 W/m^2 to the top face and a convection on the same face with a film coefficient of 100 and an ambient temperature of 22 degC.  The temperature solution of 32 degC reflects both boundary conditions.Â
