Numerical Solution of Fractional Diffusion Equation Model for Freezing in Finite Media

الملخص EN

Phase change problems play very important role in engineering sciences including casting of nuclear waste materials, vivo freezing of biological tissues, solar collectors and so forth.

In present paper, we propose fractional diffusion equation model for alloy solidification.

A transient heat transfer analysis is carried out to study the anomalous diffusion.

Finite difference method is used to solve the fractional differential equation model.

The temperature profiles, the motion of interface, and interface velocity have been evaluated for space fractional diffusion equation.
