How do I export wall function HTC, instead of default surface HTC, in Abaqus format from Fluent?

      A workaround is to use Surface-FSI-Mapping in Fluent. To get it to work, you should read an inp-surface mesh, which should be created by means of the volume mesh you are using in Fluent. Then, read it as surface mesh into TGrid and write out a surface mesh file. Next, read this surface mesh in FE-Modeler and export it as Abaqus-Mesh. Use this as input in the FSI-Panel inside Fluent. Then, select “thermal” and “heat trans coeff” and also select “wall func HTC” as HTC type. Finally, write the inp-file, including the desired HTC.
