Abstract
A mathematical model is constructed which describes thermal and hydrodynamic phenomena accompanying the solidification process in a melt. The equations of hydrodynamics take into account viscoelasticity and compressibility of liquid metal. An example of calculations pertaining to solidification of an ingot is given.
