This paper is devoted to analyzing solutions of a nonlinear evolution system describing the phase transition in a rigid heat conductor in the presence of phase relaxation. First, in a general framework, a rate type constitutive law for the phase variable is considered and matched with the Helmholtz free energy involving the state of the material. Thermodynamic compatibility of the resulting models is scrutinized. Moreover, a comparison with a different phase change modelling is performed. Under proper assumptions, a nonlinear system in the (absolute) temperature and phase variable is achieved. For it, existence and uniqueness of the solution is proved and positivity of temperature is recovered.

The numerical simulation of all steps of the production of a steel workpiece is nowadays a widely used tool for understanding and optimization of such processes. The transformation of austenite into ferritic phases is an important feature of heat treatment of steel. Good models for the non-isothermal phase transition are a necessary prerequisite for various other modeling steps. We evaluate some of the existing algorithms based on the isothermal Johnson-Mehl-Avrami model and compare their performance in the case of non-isothermal phase transitions with experimental data for steel 100Cr6 with exponential and linear cooling. The investigations presented here are part of a special research project on distortion engineering (SFB 570 at University of Bremen).

We consider phase transition processes in which the thermodynamic variables are the temperature and an order parameter. Various classes are identified and many specific examples are illustrated. In this framework the question of the range of applicability of the so-called ‘additivity rules’ is investigated, showing that they apply only to a very special type of processes.
