Good afternoon to all users,

i am developing a thermal simulation of a Multi Layer Insulation, This Multi Layer Insulation consist in several layers of aluminum separated by a network of Polyethylene terephthalate.
Between each Layer there are Radiation between two surface, and conduction through the spacer (network).
Radiation area are 0.94m2, and area of conduction is 0.06 m2.
To be able to study conduction, i need to indicate a thermal conductance between Aluminum and PET. I use some normal values like:
Thermal Conductance Clearance
1e6 0
0 1
Temperature profiles seemed ok, but heat flux profile are very strangers. I don't know if i am using the right value of thermal conductance, i don't know how to find it.
Can you Abaqus Users help me?
