Conduction-convection problems with change of phase. (English) Zbl 0593.35085

In the usual simplest formulation of free boundary problems one considers only the conduction, here a formulation is studied where also convective motions are taking into account. Two problems are studied: a ground freezing one, in which the water is subjected to Darcy’s law, and a two phases stationary Stefan problem, where the motion of water is governed by the Navier-Stokes equations. Results on regularity of the solutions and of the free boundary are given in both cases.
