  • Abstract

    This paper investigates the numerical analysis to determine the thermo-physical characteristics of materials. This method is based on a heating probe kept at a constant temperature and maintained in contact with a cylindrical sample. The heat power dissipated in the sample is measured by the probe. The results address to identify simultaneously the thermal conductivity, the volumetric heat capacity and the heat transfer coefficient using the inverse problem.
