  We are trying to do the area integration of the heat flux on a plan in a solid domain in a conjugate heat transfer problem.
  This does not work because the function calculator is selecting the fluid domain and will not allow us to change it.
  How can we do this calculation in the solid domain?

  I meant to say "plane" instead of "plan".

  Hello,
  Can you create a User Surface along the plane of interest and then try using the calculator?

  We made a plane in the solid domain and asked for areaInt of the wall heat flux (heat flux did not work) over the plane.
  The answer is wrong because the domain is the fluid. Please see the attached screenshot.
