Descripción
In this article, we obtain explicit approximations of the modified error function introduced in Cho and Sunderland (1974), as part of a Stefan problem with a temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. This function depends on a parameter δ, which is related to the ther- mal conductivity in the original phase-change process. We propose a method to obtain ap- proximations, which is based on the assumption that the modified error function admits a power series representation in δ. Accurate approximations are obtained through functions involving error and exponential functions only. For the special case in which δassumes small positive values, we show that the modified error function presents some character- istic features of the classical error function, such as monotony, concavity, and boundedness. Moreover, we prove that the modified error function converges to the classical one when δgoes to zero.
