Is there a way to set air temperature close to the building?

I have a question regarding EP inputs. I am trying to couple energy plus with CFD and I need to set as input some results of the CFD simulation. In particular I need to set either the air temperature close to the building or the outside walls temperature. Unfortunately I can't find a solution. I can't use the option 'other side coefficient' since I am setting the values of the convection coefficient with the option 'Surface property: convection coefficients'. Is there a solution for this? Thank you very much.
