Hello! i am making a very simple model. it's a plate with a centered circular surface where i want to apply a Heat Generation load. I want the TOTAL load (summing up all the nodes) to be 100W. My question: making Model->Load->OnSurface->Heat Generation with an input of "100" will apply the 100W distributed uniformly throug all the nodes on that surface ( as i would like) or it will make all the nodes of that surface generate 100W each?

Thank U very much. i am sorry about my poor english!
