MULTIDIMENSIONAL INVERSE HEAT-CONDUCTION USING ALTERNATIVE GREEN-FUNCTION SOLUTION

The alternative Green's function solution is used to solve, multidimensional inverse conduction problems. It produces stable and accurate solutions which require no regularizations. A procedure is described for bodies with standard geometrical shapes. The method requires selecting a set of functions that describes all available information, including known and unknown boundary conditions. The method of selection of functions that describes the physical phenomena is presented. A numerical example is used to elaborate on the procedure.
