Using the Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for Determining the Heat Transfer Coefficient

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 103))

Abstract

In this paper we present an application of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm for solving the inverse heat conduction problem, consisting in determining the state function and some of the boundary conditions. The ABC algorithm belongs to the group of swarm intelligence algorithms and is inspired by the technique of searching for the nectar around the hive by the colony of bees. We propose to use this algorithm for minimizing the proper functional, which allows to reconstruct the value of heat transfer coefficient in the successive cooling zones.
