Ice Melting with Allowance for Selective Absorption in the Medium

详细

Melting of an ice layer on a vertical substrate heated by long-wave radiation is numerically simulated in a one-phase formulation of the Stefan problem. A simple model is proposed to take into account the presence of a thin water film on the irradiated surface. Ice is considered as a selectively absorbing material with two absorption bands. The calculated results are in reasonable agreement with the experiment.
