  I am familiar with using anisotropic properties in workbench but I am unable to use the same in AIM. I need to apply two values for thermal conductivity, one in the plane of the cross section, other in the direction perpendicular to the cross section.

  Hello,
  AIM only supports isotropic thermal conductivity.

  However, it is possible using the APDL command snippets as shown in this video : Video Player (simuportal.com)
