Travelling solidification front in a pure supercooled melt
ID: travelling-solidification-front-in-a-pure-supercooled-melt
For equal thermal properties and bounded travelling profiles on two deep half-spaces, the solid temperature is and the liquid profile is exponential. The Stefan condition requires . This balances the latent heat of solidification with warming of the initially supercooled liquid.
