Abstract

Algorithms of the optimal arrangement of heat sources with volumetric heat release within regions of a complex geometric shape are considered. The distribution found has the minimum total power and provides the temperature in the given temperature corridor. Finite-dimensional approximations of the original problem are constructed in the form of a linear programming problem. A method is given for constructing a finite-difference scheme for solving the heat equation, as well as a brief description of the developed software modules for constructing grids and solving equations. Several computer experiments have been carried out using the developed programs.
