Abstract
This paper deals with the determination of the unknown heat fluxes along the external boundary of the ingot during continuous casting process by making use of the sensitivity coefficients. As a result of the research, the complete temperature field was obtained and compared to the measurements. All calculations were made using the Boundary Element Method.
The main goal of the analysis was to assess the influence of the number of measurement sensors and their accuracy on estimated heat fluxes. The analysis shows that several factors are influencing the accuracy of the solution. It also shows that the search for the best sensor locations based only on sensitivity coefficients is a rather difficult task.
