Abstract:
The direct problem in transient heat conduction requires the determination of conditions at an interior location when conditions are known at the boundaries of a solid. Conversely, the inverse problem requires the determination of conditions at the boundaries of a solid when conditions are known at an interior location. Consequently special methods are required in the solution of the inverse problem. A new method, numerical inversion of the Laplace transform, is used to solve this complex problem. Application of this numerical technique of the semi-infinite solid, long cylinder, and sphere is made, and the accuracy of solution is discussed. This method of solution provides the engineer with a simple, powerful tool that can be used in the determination of heat transfer phenomena in a solid. Author
