Abstract
A numerical method for the solution of the one-phase Stefan problem is discussed. By discretizing the time variable the Stefan problem is reduced to a sequence of free boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations which are solved by conversion to initial value problems. The numerical solution is shown to converge to the solution of the Stefan problem with decreasing time increments. Sample calculations indicate that the method is stable provided the proper algorithm is chosen for integrating the initial value problems.
