Abstract

The dependence of the form of a water solidification front on time in a rectangular chamber bounded by two vertical walls heated to different temperatures is studied numerically. One wall is suddenly cooled to a temperature below the freezing point. Calculations are performed allowing for the heat of crystallization and inversion in the dependence of water density on temperature.
