Journal ArticleDOI
Melting of a finite paraffin slab as applied to phase-change thermalcontrol.
TL;DR: In this article, an approximate mathematical model was established for the melting of a finite paraffin slab, a problem of interest for phase-change thermal control devices, based on the numerical computer solution of the two-phase, one-dimensional heat-conduction equations with moving interface and variable thermal properties in both the solid and liquid regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gravity-Induced Free Convection Effects in Melting Phenomena for Thermal Control
TL;DR: Gravity induced free convection effects in melting phenomena for thermal control, predicting temperature distributions and solid-liquid interface profiles by two dimensional model as discussed by the authors, using a two-dimensional model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase change solidification dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, phase change solidification phenomena in n-hexadecane for spacecraft thermal control systems, considering two or three dimensional models, were investigated. But they did not consider two-dimensional models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquefaction dynamics of n-octadecane in cylindrical coordinates
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of gravity-induced free convection upon the melting phenomena of a finite paraffin slab were modeled by using a numerical computer solution of the solid phase and liquid phase energy equations, coupled with an imposed ideal-viscous flow approximation.
