public class DiathermicMedium
extends ClassicalProblem

The diathermic model is based on the following propositions: - A cylindrically shaped sample is completely transparent to thermal radiation; - The front~(laser-facing) and rear (detector-facing) sides of the sample are coated by a thin grey absorber; - The coatings are in perfect thermal contact with the bulk material; - The side surface is free from any coating.

Consequently, the monochromatic laser radiation is largely absorbed at the front face of the sample (y = 0), causing immediate heating. A portion of thermal radiation causes the rear face (y = 1) to start heating precisely at the same time~(ahead of thermal conduction). The remainder energy dissipates in the ambient.

Method Detail

initProperties

public void initProperties()

Overrides:

initProperties in class ClassicalProblem

initProperties

public void initProperties(ThermalProperties properties)

Overrides:

initProperties in class ClassicalProblem

optimisationVector

public void optimisationVector(ParameterVector output)

Description copied from class: Problem

Calculates the vector argument defined on $$Rⁿ to the scalar objective function for this Problem. To fill the vector with data, only those parameters from this Problem will be used which are defined by the flags, e.g. if the flag associated with the HEAT_LOSS keyword is set to false, its value will be skipped when creating the vector.

Specified by:

optimisationVector in interface Optimisable

Overrides:

optimisationVector in class ClassicalProblem

Parameters:

output - the output vector where the result will be stored

Problem.listedTypes()

assign

public void assign(ParameterVector params)
            throws SolverException

Description copied from class: Problem

Assigns parameter values of this Problem using the optimisation vector params. Only those parameters will be updated, the types of which are listed as indices in the params vector.

Specified by:

assign in interface Optimisable

Overrides:

assign in class ClassicalProblem

Parameters:

params - the optimisation vector, containing a similar set of parameters to this Problem

Throws:

SolverException - if params contains invalid parameter values

defaultScheme

public Class<? extends DifferenceScheme> defaultScheme()

Overrides:
