Application of Wavelet in Highly Ill-Posed Inverse Heat Conduction Problem
In this work, the prefiltering of the sensor data is taken into consideration when solving an inverse heat conduction problem. The temperature data obtained from each sensor is considered as a discrete signal, and discrete wavelet transform in a multi-resolution filter bank structure is utilized for the signal analysis, after which wavelet denoising algorithm is applied to remove noise from data signal. Subsequently, noisy and denoised temperatures are separately used as input data to an inverse heat conduction problem for comparison. The inverse heat conduction problem considered in this article is an inverse volumetric heat source problem, and it is solved using the conjugate gradient method along with the associated adjoint problem used to obtain the gradient of the objective function. Three sets of results in two case studies are compared (i.e., the result obtained from non-noisy data, noisy data, and denoised data). In the case of noisy data, iterative regularization is used to regularize the solution. The root mean square error of the estimated heat source from denoised data is reduced approximately by a factor of seven to nine as compared to those obtained from noisy data.
