Is there an element type that will allow me to connect two nodes together with a fixed thermal resistance (such as 5 degrees celsius per Watt)? I would think this should be possible but I haven't been able to locate what kind of element to use in the documentation.

I think I solved my own problem. I'll just use a beam element with the appropriate thermal resistance (L/kA).
