This paper solves the inverse source problem of heat conduction in which the source term only varies with time. The application of the discrete regularization method, a kind of effective radial symmetry and axisymmetric heat conduction problem source identification that does not involve the grid integral numerical method, is put forward. Taking the fundamental solution as the fundamental function, the classical Tikhonov regularization method combined with the L-curve criterion is used to select the appropriate regularization parameters, so the problem is transformed into a class of ill-conditioned linear algebraic equations to solve with an optimal solution. Several numerical examples of inverse source problems are given. Simultaneously, a few numerical examples of inverse source problems are given, and the effectiveness and superiority of the method is shown by the results.
