Solution reconstruction from limited number of measurements is useful in many areas of heat transfer applications. Unlike the standard problems, such reconstruction problems are ill-posed; thus, the non-uniqueness of solution and inherent instability severely complicates the modelling process. Consequently, more conventional inverse analysis method…

In recent years, physics-informed neural networks (PINN) have been used to solve stiff-PDEs mostly in the 1D and 2D spatial domain. PINNs still experience issues solving 3D problems, especially, problems with conflicting boundary conditions at adjacent edges and corners. These problems have discontinuous solutions at edges and corners that are di…

Critical to the successful design of fusion reactor components is the development of coupled simulation models, capable of conducting efficient whole system design optimisation and virtual component qualification, under conditions which cannot be readily tested. Additionally, successful lifetime monitoring and predictive maintenance of fusion compo…

The CHIMERA fusion technology test facility is currently under construction at the UK Atomic Energy Authority site in South Yorkshire, UK. With the completion of the engineering design, including the design of a component mock-up to be used in full system commissioning, this paper presents in detail the features and capabilities of the CHIMERA faci…
