By utilizing the assumption of a quasi steady state temperature profile for the solution to the Stefan problem an approximate solution to the ice‐water problem in which a constant heat flux exists in the water phase is developed. Two hypothetical cases are studied. Case 1 considers a step change in the ambient air temperature. Case 2 considers the effect of sinusoidal ambient air temperature fluctuations. A method is developed for determining the characteristic heat flux in the water phase.
