Our main objective is to provide an explanation and a remedy to the observed erroneous and/or divergent results associated with an instantaneous phase change model used in the literature. We propose a reaction-diffusion model based on the Hertz-Knudsen equation, where phase change is not instantaneous but determined by an evaporation/condensation rate. A splitting scheme is designed for the reaction-diffusion model so that a link between these two models can be established and the nonintuitive numerical instability associated with the instantaneous phase change model can be identified and eliminated. The evaporation/condensation rate is estimated by comparing results of the reaction-diffusion model with experimental observations reported in the literature. For evaporation/condensation rate beyond the estimated value, oscillatory solution with multiple regions of dry and two-phase zones is observed. We show that these are caused by an instability intrinsic to the model (which we call diffusive instability) using linear stability analysis and numerical tests. © 2007 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. | Source Title: | SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/76578 | ISSN: | 00361399 | DOI: | 10.1137/060653329 |
