Analyze Heat generated by Friction

Hi,

I'm trying analyze the heat generated by friction between two speciments (moving pin and a fixed plate) and the transfer and distribution of the heat in the speciments.
So far I created the parts and assembled them together. I think the key element to the analysis is the right choice of procedure type in the Step module and the element type in the Mesh module. I chose coupled-temp displacement for both. I also created a surface-to-surface interaction between both speciments with frictional properties and heat generated through friction. The simulation works, but I can't see any heat generated. I atttached my cae-file. I hope you guys can help me to find the mistake.
Thanks!
