Change boundary conditions in a transient thermal analysis in Ansys Workbench

  Hello,
  We are doing a transient thermal analysis in Ansys Workbench.
  We want is write an APDL command that retrieves nodal temperatures on a predetermined boundary, stores the temperatures and then multiplies them by a scalar value.
  We then want to use the scaled value as input at a certain boundary in the nex time step. It is very important that this happens for every Time Step as scaling the solution afterwards does not yield the same results.
  Can you help?

  Hi,
  
  You may need to use a do loop on the time steps and then enter the post-processor and then again enter preprocessing to apply the load for each step.
