Exporting an area as a profile of heat flux- Fluent

  Hi,
  I would like to export the heat flow over an area as a PROFILE from a steady state 3D simulation.
  I load this Profile into another steady state 3D simulation. I would like to multiply the values ??for the heat flow from the PROFILE using a scalar. For this I would like to create an expression that contains the values ??of the profile. In the Ansys help page you can see that the profile can be used when writing the expression.
  On the image you can see that, I don't have this tab.
  Does anyone have an idea how to solve it?

  Check Section 5.2.5, did you load a profile? n

  Yes i already loaded the profile and I can use the profile for boundary conditions. But for defining an expression it isn?t able to choose the profile, like I described before.n

  You might want to try again in 2021R1: the manual doesn't have a section for Profiles in Expressions in 2020R2. n
