Determining boundary heat flux profiles in an enclosure containing solid conducting block

TL;DR: In this paper, an iterative conjugate gradient method is applied such that the gradient of the cost function is introduced when the appropriate sensitivity and adjoint problems are defined. And the accuracy of the heat flux profile estimations is shown to depend strongly on the thermal Rayleigh number, body size and relative thermal conductivity of the solid material.
