Summary

This work is directed towards numerical simulations of short time temperature oscillations in liquid during the melting and/or solidification processes. A new approach based on the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equation developed for this purpose is proposed. The method is further applied to three example situations showing that it is capable of handling complicated phase-change problems. The mechanism of origin of the temperature oscillations in the vortices interaction is demonstrated.
