Abstract

We develop an algorithm capable of detecting the presence of spherical voids in a thermally conducting object. In addition, the process recovers both the radii and locations of each void. Our method involves the application of a known steady state heat flux to the object's boundary and measurement of the induced steady state temperature on the boundary.
