Horvay-Cahn Solution [1961] (2-fold)
Paraboloids with elliptical cross-section:
Here
w
is the independent variable, and b
≠
0 generates an elliptical
cross section.
Solid-liquid interface is
w
= P, temperature field is T = T(
w
):
Conservation of energy:
For b = 0, the axisymmetric Ivantsov solution is recovered.
