Help with condensation model

I am trying to model basic condensation of water vapor on an aluminum sheet in COMSOL. However, the current simulation I have does not change temperature and both the water vapor and aluminum have the same temperature and I do not know how to change this. Are there any better tutorials for this than the evaporative cooling tutorial or the condensation detection in an electronic device tutorial? I have worked through both of those but I still do not understand how to properly utilize the water vapor physics or what the best approach for my simulation might be. Any help is appreciated.

You must use a two phase flow module. Also, the aluminum sheet should have a lower temperature in order for condensation to take place. Maybe I could help more if you shared your model.
