We perform classical nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to calculate heat flow through a microscopic junction connecting two larger reservoirs. In contrast to earlier papers, we also include the reservoirs in the simulated region to study the effect of the bulk-nanostructure interfaces and the bulk conductance. The scalar Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) model is used to describe the effects of anharmonic interactions in a simple manner. The temperature profile close to the junction in the low-temperature limit is shown to exhibit strong directional features that fade out when temperature increases. Simulating both the FPU chain and the two bulk regions is also shown to eliminate the nonmonotonous temperature variations found for simpler geometries and models. We show that, with sufficiently large reservoirs, the temperature profile in the chain does not depend on the details of thermalization used at the boundaries.
