Stefan's Problem in a Finite Domain with Constant Boundary and Initial Conditions Analysis.
Abstract
Stefan's problem in a finite domain is solved under constant boundary and initial conditions. Starting in a semi-infinite domain, the solution passes infinitely many stages of lead times in a finite domain and finally becomes stationary. The singularity at the finite terminal necessitates introduction of lead times. Including lead times, parameters defining the solution vary with time. Only the analytical result is reported in this paper.
