Abstract

Heat transfer problems obey to diffusion phenomenon. In this paper we show that they can be modelled with the help of fractional systems. The simulation is based on a fractional integrator operator where the non-integer behaviour acts only over a limited spectral band. Starting with frequency considerations derived from the analysis of a diffusion problem, a more general approximation of the fractional system is proposed. A state-space model is presented that gives an accurate simulation for transients, and with which it is possible to carry out an output-error technique to estimate the model parameters. Numerical simulations of the heat transfer problem are used to illustrate the improvements of the proposed model.
