CONFORMAL MAPPING PROCEDURE FOR TRANSIENT AND STEADY-STATE TWO-DIMENSIONAL SOLIDIFICATION
Abstract
A conformal mapping method was developed for analyzing two-dimensional transient and steady-state solidification problems. The method was applied to the solidification which takes place on a cold plate of finite width immersed in a flowing liquid and to the solidification inside of a cooled rectangular channel which contains a warm flowing liquid. The transient and steady-state shapes of the frozen regions are investigated.
