Heat flux extraction in ABAQUS

Hello everybody,
I am new to Abaqus output capabilities. I have simple rectangular block (descritized with DC3D8 continuum elements). All the sides of the block are temperature defined boundaries and the front and back faces are defined with some Heat transfer coefficient. I would like to know the Heat flux value across all the boundaries. (like side_boundary1=xyz W/m2, side_boundary2=..,front_face=..). Is there any way to get the Total heat Heat flux magnitude (SOH can be used for this, I think) and also Total heat flux in each direction for the defined set/boundary in Abaqus?
Please let me know your opinions on this.
Regards
