I use the Abaqus/CSE to couple a heat transfer analysis with an external heat flux generation tool. The grids are not point-matched, but exist in the same coordinate space. Sending "surface_heat_flux" (HFL) nets me mapping failures on all the elements with exchange surface faces, while sending "heat_flux" (CFL) works fine. If sending concentrated fluxes work fine, what could be the driving difference here if the CSE should have no issue mapping two grids in the same space?
