Application of Heat Balance Integral Methods to One-Dimensional Phase Change Problems

We employ the Heat Balance Integral Method (HBIM) to solve a number of thermal and phase change problems which occur in a multitude of industrial contexts. As part of our analysis, we propose a new error measure for the HBIM that combines the least-squares error with a boundary immobilisation method...
