I am trying to model heat transfer between a conductor and the helium liquid around it. The heat transfer coefficient for the solid-liquid interface is a complex function having non-linear dependency on temperatures (the temperature in the conductor and the temperature in the helium) and the heat flux.  In my case I am modelling the conductor with ansys element "fluid116" and helium with "mass71". As explained in ANSYS documentation such an non-linear heat transfer coefficient can be defined by using UPF of ANSYS, thus modifying  user116hf.f  file of ansys. Have anyone came accross such practice ?
