Wall temperature in DEFINE_BOILING_PROPERTY

  I use T_wall = F_T(f,t); in a DEFINE_BOILING_PROPERTY udf to calculate the Jacob number. However, it seems that the code stores at T_wall not the wall boundary temperature, but a value more close to the temperature at the wall adjacent cell. Is there any way to obtain within the udf the wall temperature?
  
  Thank you in advance

  That should be the facet temperature. How big is the near wall cell?

  It should the correct wall temperature. With which quantity are you comparing it?
