Detailed Description

This source is designed to model the effect of solidification and melting processes, e.g. windshield defrosting.

The isotherm phase change occurs at the melting temperature, Tsol (= Tliq). The not isotherm phase change occurs between solidus and liquidus temperature, Tsol < Tliq respectively, as long as the melt fraction is greater than the max eutectic melt fraction, alpha1e (0 = pure_substance, 1 = eutectic_mixture is not permitted), where a linear eutectic melt fraction to temperature relation is considered; e.g. given a specific quantity of a binary system, alpha1 is its melt fraction and alpha0 is its solid fraction, such that alpha0 = 1 - alpha1 therefore, assuming infinite solute diffusion, the quantity of a component in solid phase is (1 - alpha1) * CS where CS is the solid concentration of the considered component and the quantity of a component in liquid phase is alpha1 * CL where CL is the melt concentration of the considered component; considering that the total quantity of a component must be equal to the sum of the quantities of the considered component in the liquid and solid phases, if C0 is the initial concentration of the considered component before the phase change, then: C0 = (1 - alpha1) * CS + alpha1 * CL (lever rule) from which: alpha1 = (C0 - CS) / (CL - CS) and thus:

for a miscible binary system alpha1e = 0;
for a binary system not miscible at solid state alpha1e = C0 / CLE where CLE is eutectic melt concentration;
for a binary system partially-miscible at solid state alpha1e = (C0 - CSE) / (CLE - CSE) where CSE is eutectic solid concentration of the relative solid solution.

The presence of the solid phase in the flow field is incorporated into the model as a momentum porosity contribution; the energy associated with the phase change is added as an enthalpy contribution.
