SOME CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE EXACT SOLUTION IN THE ONE PHASE-STEFAN PROBLEM

A. Boucíguez, R. Lozano, M. A. Lara

Abstract


The one phase Stefan problem in a semi - infinite slab with heat flux boundary condition  proportional  to  t½   and  with  constant  temperature  boundary condition are presented here. In these two cases the exact solution exists, the relation  between  the  two  boundary  conditions  is  presented  here,  and  the equivalence between the two problems is demostrated.

Keywords
