✦ Synopsis

The maximum entropy method (MEM) is applied to estimation of surface temperature from temperature readings. The inverse heat conduction problem is reformulated for MEM and a three-phase solution method utilizing the successive quadratic programming (SQP) is addressed. Computational results by the proposed MEM are presented and compared with results by the conventional methods.
