Abstract
A self-consistent perturbation expansion is developed for the case of a finite slab of phase-changing material with constant boundary conditions corresponding to a ‘‘two-phase’’ problem. Consistency is achieved by a power-series expansion in functions of both solid and liquid Stefan numbers. Terms through third order are calculated.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
