Abstract:Semi-analytical solutions to the classical two phase Stefan problem are proposed. Time dependent solutions to the one-dimensional liquid-solid phase transition in a PCM wallboard subjected to isothermal and periodic Dirichlet boundary conditions are obtained. Transient and steady state solutions are found in finite size systems, and the semi-analytical solutions are validated through the asymptotic time limit behaviour of the phase transition. In this work, complex Fourier methods are proposed to find the solu… Show more
