title: Coefficients for solution of the analytical freezing equation in the range of states for rapid solidification of biological systems.
abstract: Solution of the classical solidification heat transfer problem for many biological applications involves states for which roots of the transcendental equation associated with the governing differential equation are not available. These roots are calculated and presented for conditions that characterize a large ratio of solid to liquid phase thermal conductivities and diffusivities and large differences between the initial and final temperatures for the cooling process.
