Inverse heat transfer problem

Hello,

I need to determine the surface temperature by doing an inverse heat transfer problem method.

Experiments are done with impingement of a hot steel plate(900°C) with 3 thermocouples located at 1mm below the surface. The data is measured at a rate of 150Hz. This gives a nice temperature/time dependence at these locations.

Is is possible in COMSOL4.2a to load these data sets from the thermocouples into COMSOL to perform a inverse heat transfer problem to calculate surface temperatures/heat fluxes?

Regards

What are the unknowns in the heat transfer model that you want to calculate as the inverse problem?

The temperature and the heatflux at the surface. And the program should use datasets from the thermocouples.

Hi

yes you can drive the input power flux (as an average value, not a distributed field though) by making an error function from the difference of the sum_over_"i"_of(T_measured_i_ - T_at_sensor_i)^2 and define it in a weak expression node

back in 3.5 I believe there was a thermal example in the model library using one side to drive the inlet on the other, but I cant find it back in my 4.3

Good luck

Hello!!
Question for Ruben Brink?
I have exactly the same problem as you!
question:
Whether we can exchange e-mail?
