Abstract
A new method of reconstruction of transport coefficients is presented. The values of the electron temperature at a few points along the plas ma radius at several moments of time are assumed to be known. The heat conduction and convection coefficients and the heat source are found from the condition that the discrepancy functional must have a minimum value. Experiments in T-10 with auxiliary electron cyclotron resonanc e heating are discussed.
