Abstract
Results of a numerical solution of the inverse Stefan problem are presented for a sphere with boundary conditions of the third kind. Expressions are derived for calculating the time of total diffusion saturation of a spherical core, taking into account the rate of interaction of the gas phase with the surface of the solid.
