The Stefan problem with mushy region as a scaling limit of stochastic PDE with turbulent transport

Abstract: This work establishes a scaling limit theorem for the Stefan problem incorporating a mushy region, demonstrating that solutions to stochastic variants with turbulent transport terms converge to the solution to a deterministic partial differential equation. The analysis builds upon recent advances in stochastic phase-change modeling and turbulent flow mathematics in [5]. In the physical interpretation of an ice melting process, our result shows that turbulence accelerates ice melting.
