Abstract
Predicting interface position of solidβliquid phase change is important for the filling of explosives in the shell. The cooling process of casting charge is discussed analytically and experimentally. The basic equations describing this process are derived from a modified and extended equivalent heat capacity model. Numerical calculations are then performed to determine the solidification front distributions and temperature distributions. The experiments are performed using TNT as the phase change material. Comparison between practical experiments and computer simulation has shown that there is a good agreement. By using computer calculations, a better knowledge of important parameters for the casting process can be easily obtained.

The film casting process is widely used to produce polymer film: a molten polymer is extruded through a flat die, then stretched in air and cooled on a chill roll. This study is devoted to the extensional flow between the die and the chill roll. The film shows a lateral neck-in as well as an inhomog
