I assume you mean you want to model pipe that is heat traced. Disregarding thermal gradient and bowing (which are unlikely), then you need to consider the heat tracing temperature in your design inputs.

Please consult your supervisor for further information or at least provide a suggestion as to how you think you would model it.
