Abstract

In this chapter, the feasibility of handling the process of natural convection occurring in the freezing of water is described, where such a process can be regarded as another form of two-phase flow. The application of Lagrangian methods is followed whereby the respective meshes within the water and ice regions are allowed to deform due to the distortion of the freezing front, which is tracked explicitly by a surface mesh attached to it. This problem does not result in topology changes, and is thus, amenable to the consideration of the moving mesh approach.
