Abstract
A three-dimensional optimal control algorithm in determining the strength of the unknown optimal boundary control heat fluxes utilizing the Conjugate Gradient Method (CGM) and a general purpose commercial code CFX4.2 is applied successfully in the present study based on the desired domain temperature distributions at the final time of heating. Results obtained by using the conjugate gradient method to solve this three-dimensional optimal control problems are justified based on the numerical experiments. Two different computational domains and two different desired temperature distributions are given and the corresponding optimal control heat fluxes are to be determined. Results show that the optimal control heat fluxes can always be obtained with any arbitrary initial guesses of the boundary fluxes.
