Hello,

I'm working with a 2D heat transfer analysis.
I have two model, with a Coupled temp-displacement step each one.
In the first model, a heat surface flux is applied in a face element. In the second model, I import the Job from Model-1 as a predefined field (initial state).
I have the Model-1 results in the Model-2, but here is the problem. I apply another surface heat flux in a face element, and when I submit the job Abaqus says:

UNDERLYING ELEMENT 22 INSTANCE PART-1-1 CAN NOT HAVE E1 AS A FACE IDENTIFIER
SURFACE DEFINITION ASSEMBLY__PICKEDSURF8 NOT FOUND.
THE SURFACE ASSEMBLY__PICKEDSURF8 HAS NOT BEEN LOCATED

Do you know what happens?
I am looking but without results. Thank you very much for your help
