Abstract

Self‐similar solutions of the problem of displacement of a gas dissolved in a melt by plane and spherical crystallization fronts are found for the case where the crystal growth rate is inversely related to the square root of time. A criterion of the absence of gas displacement due to segregation is found. The problem for a plane crystallization front moving with a constant velocity is analytically solved by means of the Laplace transform method.
