Hi!!!!

I´m trying to make a thermal study in SOLIDWORKS SIMULATION. These are two plates (carbón Steel) separated in X distance. Air or space is between these two plates. The plate 1 will be heated at 800°C on its surface and I want to know the final temperature on plate 2 surface. (see attached file). I began adding the initial temperature (ambient = 24°C) on plate 2 all surfaces and adding the temperature on plate 1 surface but I do not find how to link the plate 1 to plate 2 by radiation (I think). Please help me how you could do to solve this problema.

Thank you very much

Rolander
