<strong>Modelling</strong><br />

Simplification: solid phase at uniform temperature Tinit = TM,<br />

only liquid phase is active, Ω = [0, ∞)<br />

=⇒ one phase Stefan problem<br />

Find T (x, t) <strong>and</strong> h(t) such that<br />

Heat equation: Tt = αLTxx, 0 < x < h(t), t > 0,<br />

Interface conditions<br />

for t > 0 :<br />

Initial condition: h(0) = 0.<br />

�<br />

T (h(t), t) = TM,<br />

h ′ (t) = −βTx(h(t), t), β := kL<br />

ρL<br />

Boundary condition: T (0, t) = TA(t) = TA > TM : t > 0.<br />

similar processes: solidification, flows through porous media,<br />

combustion, reactions<br />
