Abstract

In this paper we obtain self-similarity solutions for a one-phase one-dimensional fractional space one-phase Stefan problem in terms of the three parametric Mittag-Leffer function Eα,m;l(z)E_{\alpha,m;l}(z). We consider Dirichlet and Newmann conditions at the fixed face, involving Caputo fractional space derivatives of order 0<α<10 < \alpha < 1. We recover the solution for the classical one-phase Stefan problem when the order of the Caputo derivatives approaches one.
