Abstract
This work uses Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for estimating the heat generation function of a Guarded Hot-Plate Apparatus (GHPA). The device is used for the determination of thermal conductivity of insulating materials. The problem is one-dimensional in cylindrical coordinates. The geometry includes a disc (Hot-Plate) and an annulus (Guard). The heat generation function is estimated from a one to five parameters polynomial series. The capability of the method for recovering the analytical function is tested. Results are good enough for this kind of problem.
