Heating of a body in vacuum

Heating of a body in vacuum

Heating of a body in vacuum

(OP)
Hello,

I am just started simulating with ANSYS (12.0 Workbench).
Now I want to calculate the temperature field of a body which is situated in vacuum and is heated from outside (through another body or layer). The ambient temperature is constant. The heating block or layer is switch on and off. So it is a transient calculation.

How is the vacuum simulated (with Enclosure)?

Both bodies have to be connected, haven't they (shared topology)?

Is it possible to do the simulation "internal body heat generation" or is there another simple possibility to do it?
