      Hello,
      Are you using Fluent for this analysis? You can check the post processing variables, Wall Adjacent HTC, Surface HTC and yplus based HTC. For more details check this link [https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v202/en/flu_ug/flu_ug_fvdefs.html] Equations (42-60), (42-42) and (42-64).
      Regards SD
