Abstract
Numerical modeling of the single-phase Stefan problem in a semitransparent layer with transparent, nonabsorbing, and partially radiation-absorbing boundaries is performed. It is shown that at low temperatures of the medium, convection is a determining factor on the boundary of the irradiated sample, and at high temperatures, radiation is predominant. The absence of absorption on the boundaries of the layer leads to acceleration of the heating of the plate and considerable deceleration of melting processes.
