Melting and solidification
From Thermal-FluidsPedia
Melting and solidification find application in the geophysical sciences; industrial forming operations such as casting and laser drilling; latent heat energy storage systems; and food and pharmaceutical processing. Any manmade metal products must undergo liquid forms at some point during manufacturing processes and solidify to form intermediate or final products.
- One-Region, two-Region, and multi-region problems, conduction and convection controlled melting and solidification.
