Inverse problem of unsteady conjugated forced convection in parallel plate channels

The heat transfer phenomena of the unsteady laminar forced convection in parallel plate channels with wall conduction effects are still not very well understood. An inverse algorithm based on the conjugate gradient method is proposed to estimate the boundary conditions of these problems, and the minimization of object function is used to reduce the estimated error. The estimation of applied heat flux is found to be highly dependent of temperature sensor location and uncertainty, plate thickness, and heating way. The results show that the predicted boundary conditions by the present inverse method are consistent with the initially specified ones.
