An exact solution for the finite Stefan problem with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and specific heat.

Author(s) : RAMOS M., CERRATO Y., GUTIERREZ J.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

Similar solutions are obtained by means of the enthalpic method for the finite one-dimensional Stefan problem in different geometries. Thermal conductivity and specific heat vary as a power of temperature. The solutions found are applied to a food freezing-thawing problem, magma solidification and thermal energy storage. In this way, the exact expression obtained for freezing time is more general than the empirical one developed by Plank.
