Abstract
A mushy region is assumed to consist of a fine mixture of two distinct phases separated by free boundaries. A method of multiple scales, with restrictions on the form of the microscopic free boundaries, is used to derive a macroscopic model for the mushy region. The final model depends both on the microscopic structure and on how the free-boundary temperature varies with curvature (Gibbs-Thomson effect), kinetic undercooling, or, for an alloy, composition.
