The Modified Isotherm Migration Method (MIMM) is developed for solving one‐dimensional Stefan‐type problems of multifront propagation in slabs, cylinders and spheres with a boundary condition of the third kind (radiation‐type boundary condition). The method is illustrated for all three geometries with applications to the thawing of ice and to the freezing of a 50–50 dispersion of tetradecane in water, a system in which two freezing fronts propagate simultaneously.
