Efficient numerical technique for one-dimensional thermal problems with phase change

Abstract A new numerical scheme for one-dimensional heat flow problems with phase change is presented. The technique, which continuously monitors the progression of the phase interface, is unusual for the high accuracy achieved without sacrifice to computing efficiency.
