OSTI ID:5037832
We study the one-phase Stefan problem on a semi-infinite strip x> or =0, with the convective boundary condition -KT/sub x/(0,t) = h(T/sub L/--T(0,t)). Points of intrest include: a) behavior of the surface temperature T(0,t); b) asymptotic behavior as h..-->..infinity; c) uniqueness, and d) bounds on the phase change front and total system energy.
