Simulation of two semiinfinite bodies in contact

Hi everyone,
I have a big doubt in how to model the contact between two semi-infinite solids with ansys. It is supposed that at the beginning of the transitory state I have to see a "s" shape in the temperature against position plot due to the different temperatures of both bodies. The question is that i have no idea in which elements i have to use (I think it is INFIN 110) and what is the procedure to simulate this. I have to simulate two things:
1) A can layed in a wall and i want to see the thermal gradient going from the wall to the can
2) The contat between the skin of a man hand with a wood table or a metal table.

Anyone could help me and tell me where I start with?
Thanks for advance.
