# fix_modify AtC fix_flux command

## Syntax

    fix_modify <AtC fixID> fix_flux <field> <face_set> <value|function>

- AtC fixID = ID of fix atc instance

- fix_flux = name of the AtC sub-command

- field = field kind name valid for type of physics: temperature or electron_temperature

- face_set = name of set of element faces

- value or function = value or name of function followed by its parameters

## Examples

    fix_modify AtC fix_flux temperature faceSet 10.0

## Description

Command for fixing normal fluxes e.g. heat_flux. This command only prescribes the normal component of the physical flux, e.g. heat (energy) flux. The units are in AtC units, i.e. derived from the LAMMPS length, time, and mass scales.

## Restrictions

Only normal fluxes (Neumann data) can be prescribed.
