Previously published methods for the solution of one-dimensional heat-conduction problems with melting or freezing are briefly reviewed and weaknesses of previous analytic and numerical methods are outlined. Two new and more generally applicable numerical methods, applicable to digital and analog computation, are developed in the paper. Sample problems using these new techniques are solved and compared with the results of a widely used conventional method. An evaluation of the various methods and recommendations on areas of application are included.

A discussion is given of the steady and transient temperature problems associated with the design of small gas turbines and starter equipment. The transient heat-conduction equation is given in differential and finite-difference form. Boundary conditions of convective heat transfer, radiation and prescribed temperatures are discussed. Several methods for solution of these equations in irregularly shaped bodies are given. Examples of solutions of typical temperature problems in small gas turbines are shown. Solution by means of an electrolytic tank, analog computer and a digital computer are discussed, with the advantages and disadvantages of each method given.
