In computation (c) models Q see [l] and P were used. In Figs. 3,a and 3,b, respectively we show for these models the fields of r. v, p, V (V is the velocity modulus) in the meridional plane of flow (x, r) with x axis of symmetry at the instant t = 1.33. We measured Tin eV, v in c&/g, p in lOi g/cm.se?, V in km/set, and x and r in cm. All the calculations showed that the use of the law of conservation of energy (1) with the “isothermal jump” and “Knudsen layer” models leads to slightly different results. At the same time, the use of approximate energy equation (2) in both models of vapourization kinetics gives a difference of roughly twice in the vapourizing mass of aluminium as compared with calculations based on Eq. (1). The qualitative difference between tbc models shows itself, e.g. in models P and Q, as distinct from R and S, admitting vapourimtion due to interaction of the vapour and the surface in accordance with (3) and (4), even when there is over-all heat removal (F + fGTdi@ < 0).

A MATHEMATICAL

MODEL FOR THE FREEZING OF A WATER-SATURATED POROUS MEDIUM* A. M. MAKSIMOV and G. G. TSVPIUN

The problem of the freezing of a water-saturated porous medium is considered. It is shown that using the assumptions of the existence of a phase transition front and of the dependence of the temperature of crystallization of the water on the pressure results in supercooling in some domain of parameters. To construct a solution that does not allow su~r~oling, a two-phase zone model is introduced. The solution of many engineering geocryology problems is based on modelling the freezing process of the earth. To describe heat processes, as a rule, a well-known formulation of Stefan’s problem is used, that assumes the existence of a phase transition from [ 11. The propagation of a plane front of the freezing of a nondeformed water-saturated porous medium leads to water being forced out in the direction of motion of the front following an increase in volume according to the phase transition. Such filtration flow is described by Darcy’s law and consequently, assuming water is weakly compressible, by the piezoconductivity equation [2]. In a porous medium of low permeability the motion of the crystallization front will be accompanied by a significant increase in the pressure of the liquid. In this case the dependence of the local crystallization temperature on the pressure follows naturally. In the one-dimensional formulation the basic equations are the equations of heat conduction for a solid phase zone (the ground is completely frozen, o

Note that as the values of the characteristic quantities show, convective heat transfer can be disregarded. The boundary conditions are integral analogues of the equations of conservation of heat and mass of the water, described for a moving interface of the zones X(r): T_-T+-T.-j(P.-Pe),

Here &q&h, is the characteristic temperature, where u, and A, are the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of water respectively. In all calculations of the parameters that define the properties of the water and ice, the following values are used 141:a,=2.3XIOdm2/s, A,=O.S8W/(m.*K), C,,=4.19kJ/kg.°K, &2XfO*Pa, ~=O.OOlPa.s, n=0.765XlO~‘%/Pa, z=273”K, q=333.7kJ/kg, p~=1000kglm3, p,=910kg/mf, C,=2.09kJ/kg.°K, A,=2.23W/m.OK. Here C, and C, are the heat capacity of water and ice respectively, A, is the thermal conducti~ty of ice, and q is the heat of the phase transition. It is characteristic that the curve of the self-similar solution Tin the liquid phase zone everywhere lies above the curve of the local phase transition temperature Tp However a domain of values of the parameters exists for which the

dependence of the crystallization temperature on the pressure leads to supercooling of the fluid. An example of the calculation of such a solution is represented in Fig. 2 and corresponds to the following values for the ground parameters: T0=274W, P=263%, a,=0.78X10dm2/s, a=1.14X10d/s, x=0.86X10~‘m2/s, m=0.2 (the meaning of the curves is as in Fig. 1). As is well-known, in an analogous supercooling a frontal solution of the problem of crystallization of a binary melt is also necessary [S-7]. This problem is solvable if it is assumed that between the solid phase zone and the liquid phase zone there is a two-phase state zone in which water and ice exist in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium. In this case the local temperatures of the phases correspond and are equal to the crystallization temperature for local pressure values. The mathematical formulation of the problem has the form (1) in the solid phase domain (ocr

The permeability of a porous medium is related to the humidity v by the following relation that is an approximation from experimental data [3]:

The results show that the frontal model usuahy used for engineering caIcuiations can lead to an inadequate description of the freezing process of a material of low permeability. The realization of some or other freexing state depends qually on the value of the Permeability and on the values of the initial and boundary temperatures. These Parameters can be represented in nondimensional form as follows:

The domains lying below the curves correspond to solutions with a phase transition front and those above the curves correspond to values of the parameters for which a two-phase zone is created. A decrease in $ leads, of course, to a widening of the domain of existence of the two-phase zone. Trandared by S. R.

EXACT ESTIMATES OF THE ERROR GRADIENT FOR PROJECTION-DIFFERENCE FOR PARABOLIC EQUATIONS IN AN ARBITRARY DOMAIN*

I. D. TURETAEV Estimates are given for the rate of convergence of some two-layer economic projection~ifferen~ schemes @.d.s.) and Crank-Nicholson p.d.s. for solving parabolic equations in an arbitrary domain. 1. An optimal estimate of order O(r + AZ)is obtained in [1] in the norm of h(Q) for the error of a family of economic p.d.s. for solving parabolic equations in an arbitrary domain fl c R*. In the present paper we prove for these p.d.s. orderwise exact estimates of the rate of convergence O(s + A) in the norm II,II(*J-IID~.R~+IID.u*. _. In addition, we study the Crank-Nicholson p,d.s. in an arbitrary domain fl c I?“, n Z 1. For the error of this scheme we prove exact estimates order order O(# + ]k]*) and O(S + ]hl) in the norms of f&Q) and ll.@r’respectively. For the case of constant coefftcients, when ff is a parallelelpi~, the optimai estimate of the error of the Crank-Nicholson scheme in the norm of L,(Q) was obtained in [2]. The rate of convergence of the p.d.s. whenfsatisfies some smoothness condition was studied in [3,4] (see also the references there). We solve the first initial value problem Dlu+Lu-f

Let &, be the domain which is the union of partial rectangles of Rh2which lie in fi and are spaced 0 (max (h2, !I,)) from the boundary XL Further, the domain a\& is divided into triangular elements in the usual way. Then, the required mesh domain f& is defined as the union of all triangles and f&. We assume that the division of fl into finite elements is regular. With this way of constructing fh, the boundary dfl is approximated by the boundary dfl, of the domain f& with order O(K), where A is the maximum of the sides of the elements. Let s” be the space of functions, continuous in fi, linear in triangles, and bilinear in the rectangular elements, and vanishing in ii/n,; S, is the space of functions, continuous in [O, r], linear in each interval fr(k-tf. rk], k=i, 2.. . . ,.4&TM-T.
