Summary

A CONFORMAL TRANSFORMATION METHOD IS APPLIED TO THE DETERMINATION OF THE SHAPE OF THE INTERFACE BETWEEN A SOLIDIFIED LAYER FORMED ON THE INSIDE OF A COOLED PIPE OF RECTANGULAR CROSS-SECTION AND A WARMER FLOWING LIQUID. THE CONVECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER FROM THE LIQUID TO THE INTERFACE, IN THE STEADY STATE CASE, BALANCES THE HEAT TRANSFER BY CONDUCTION THROUGH THE SOLIDIFIED LAYER. THIS HEAT TRANSFER IS COMPUTED AS A FUNCTION OF A NON-DIMENSIONAL PARAMETER INVOLVING THE INTERFACIAL CONVECTION COEFFICIENT AND THE THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF THE LAYER. IT IS FOUND THAT THE EXTENT OF SOLIDIFICATION DISPLAYS A CHARACTERISTIC.
