Abstract In the paper we solve the one-phase inverse problem of alloy solidifying within the casting mould, including the shrinkage of metal which results from the difference between densities of the liquid and solid phases. The process is modeled by means of the solidification in the temperature interval basing on the heat conduction equation with the source element enclosed, whereas the shrinkage of metal is modeled by the proper application of the mass balance equation. The investigated inverse problem consists in reconstruction of the heat transfer coefficient on the boundary of the casting mould on the basis of measurements of temperature read from the sensor placed in the middle of the mould. Functional expressing the error of approximate solution is minimized with the aid of Artificial Bee Colony Optimization algorithm.
