...Gustovo C. Buscaglia; Raúl A. Enrique Presents a new method for the numerical simulation of diffusion with phase‐change. The method is able to handle hysteresis and finite‐rate kinetics in the phase‐change reaction. Such phenomena are frequent in solid‐solid phase transitions. The model problem...

... on the implicit alternating direction method coupled with successive under relaxation. The calculations show that for radius ratios above 1.7, the functional relationship between the mean Nusselt number and the Rayleigh number exhibits a closed hysteresis loop associated with the transition from a two to a four...
