Abstrakt: A conservative finite volume scheme for heat transfer problem in a two-dimensional domain with moving boundaries is presented. The two-phase Stefan problem is considered as an example. The front-fixing technique is applied to track the moving interface between the solid and the liquid. The time-varying physical domain is mapped to a fixed computational space with regular boundaries. Finite volume approximation to governing equations is constructed in the computational domain on a fixed rectangular grid. The geometric conservation law is incorporated in the numerical scheme. The Jacobian and the grid velocities of the control volume are evaluated to satisfy the discrete form of the Jacobian transport equation. This procedure guarantees the enforcing of the space conservation law in the physical domain. The numerical scheme inherits the basic properties of the original differential problem.
