Thermal Electric Analysis: heating to a particular temperature

Please help.

I am trying to simulate electrical equipment where current is applied to the conductive part until that part reaches a particular temperature (e.g 75 degrees Celsius). I am trying to see what happens to the rest of the components in the equipment in the period between excitation and when the temperature is reached.

I am not sure how to set this temperature as a criterion for the simulation without forcing that conductive part to be permanently at that temperature during the simulation process.

Any suggestions as to how this can be done?
