non-uniform inward heat flux on boundary that cannot be described by equation

Hi,

I am a relatively new COMSOL user. I have been using the COMSOL heat transfer module for a month.

I came across this problem when I wanted to model the heat flux distribution on a boundary. I used to employ a simple 2D gaussian distribution as the heat flux input. The equation can do that perfectly.

But now I wanted to move onto a more realistic distribution which cannot be described simply as an equation. It can be described numerically by a set of coordinates(grids) and values, though.

Can somebody give me some hints about how can I do that? Thank you.

Yiming

Never mind. I got it from the "function". Thanks.
