A methodology is set forth for the numerical solution of the transient freezing problem of a viscous power-law fluid flowing in a cold empty tube with a frozen layer forming on the inside tube surface. The fluid considered is the melt of a semicrystalline polymer with temperature dependent viscosity. The solution domain encompasses both the liquid and solid phases. Coordinate transformations are employed to immobilize and to straighten the moving, curved interface. An implicit finite difference method is employed to solve the governing equations. Numerical results are analyzed by examining the effects of the Peclet number, Nahme number, Stefen number, and the power law index on the profiles of the frozen layer. Variations of the thickness of the frozen layer as a function of time and axial coordinate are also presented.
