  33. Solidification (Two-Region Problem) • Solid • Liquid • B.C Scale analysis

  34. Two-Region Problem Governing Equations (Neumann problem ): Boundary Conditions Solution:

  35. Convective Effects

  36.

  37. Enthalpy Method • Two-Region Melting of a Slab • Assume densities of the liquid and solid phase are equal.

  38. Discretization

  39. Algorithm (explicit scheme) Choose ∆t and ∆x to meet Neumann’s stability criterion Determine the initial enthalpy at every node hjo (j = 1) Calculate the enthalpy after the first time step at nodes (j = 2 ,..., N -1) by using equation (1). Determine the temperature after the first time step at node (j = 1 ,..., N) by using equations (2) and (3). Find a control volume in which the enthalpy falls between 0 and hsl , and determine the location of the solid-liquid interface by using equation (4). Solve the phase-change problem at the next time step with the same procedure.

  40. Algorithm (implicit scheme) Unconditionally stable but is more complex because two unknown variables enthalpy and temperature are involved. [See Alexiades , A ., and Solomon , A . D ., 1993 , Mathematical Modeling of Melting and Freezing Processes , Hemisphere , Washington , DC .] Transform the energy equation into a nonlinear equation with a single variable h. [See Cao , Y ., and Faghri , A ., 1989 , " A Numerical Analysis of Stefan Problem of Generalized Multi-Dimensional Phase-Change Structures Using the Enthalpy Transforming Model ," International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer , Vol . 32 , pp . 1289-1298.]

  41. Equivalent Heat Capacity Method • 3-D Conduction controlled melting/solidification • Heat capacity during the phase change is infinite. • Assume Cp and k change linearly from liquid to solid • Advantage: Simplicity • Disadvantage: Unstable if right choices for ∆x, ∆t, and ∆T are not made.

  42. Temperature-Transforming Model Combination of the two methods [Cao , Y ., and Faghri , A ., 1990a , " A Numerical Analysis of Phase Change Problem including Natural Convection ," ASME Journal of Heat Transfer, Vol . 112 , pp . 812-815.] Use finite volume approach by Patankar to solve the diffusion equation.
