In the numerical simulation of casting solidification, the thermal behavior of the casting/mold interface is characterized by the interfacial heat transfer coefficient, `h`. The determination of h is difficult as it involves the solution of the Inverse Heat Conduction Problem (IHCP). One of the satisfactory solution procedures for solving the IHCP is the Beck`s non linear estimation procedure. In this work, this procedure has been used successfully by the authors for the determination of h in steady state unidirectional heat flow.
