Eral source-based method for solidification phase change
TL;DR: In this paper, a linearization of the discretized source term is proposed to deal efficiently with a wide range of latent heat evolution mechanisms (i.e., liquid fraction temperature relationships).
Journal ArticleDOI
Fixed grid techniques for phase change problems: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the major fixed grid formulations and solution methods for conduction controlled phase change problems are categorised using a two phase model of a solid/liquid phase change, the basic enthalpy equation is derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
A general enthalpy method for modeling solidification processes
TL;DR: In this article, a general implicit source-based enthalpy method is presented for the analysis of solidification systems, which is both robust and efficient, and is illustrated by application to a number of problems taken from recent metallurgical literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the enthalpy method
TL;DR: In this article, a general enthalpy method that includes as subsets both apparent heat capacity and source-based methods, is derived, and an optimal scheme is identified by solving sample phase change problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a general numerical scheme for solidification systems
TL;DR: In this article, a mixed explicit/implicit discretization of the temperature-solute coupling equations is presented, which can model the solidification of multicomponent alloys for a wide range of local scale behaviors.
