This paper couples the grid generation algorithm with the heat transport equations and applies them to simulate the thermal behavior of freezing process in water-saturated porous media. Focus is placed on establishing a computationally efficient approach for solving moving boundary heat transfer problem, in two-dimensional structured grids, with specific application to an undirectional solidification problem. Preliminary grids are first generated by an algebraic method, based on a transfinite interpolation method, with subsequent refinement using a partial differential equation (PDE) mapping (parabolic grid generation) method. A preliminary case study indicates successful implementation of the numerical procedure. A two-dimensional solidification model is then validated against available analytical solution and experimental results and subsequently used as a tool for efficient computational prototyping. The results of the problem are in good agreement with available analytical solution and experimental results.
