Abstract
A two-dimensional inverse transient heat conduction algorithm is developed to estimate the heat flux and convection heat transfer coefficient on the bottom (top) surface of the multilayered functionally graded (FG) circular plates using the measured temperature on their top (bottom) surface. The non-Fourier heat transfer, in conjunction with the layerwise-incremental differential quadrature method (LW-IDQM), is employed to accurately model the problem. The conjugate gradient method (CGM), coupled with the sensitivity and adjoint problems, are employed for the optimization procedure. The reliability and robustness of the presented approach is demonstrated by simulating the exact and noisy data through different examples.
