Two equivalent Stefan's problems for the Time Fractional Diffusion Equation

Analysis of PDEs 2013-09-17 v3

Abstract

Two Stefan's problems for the diffusion fractional equation are solved, where the fractional derivative of order \al(0,1) \al \in (0,1) is taken in the Caputo's sense. The first one has a constant condition on x=0 x = 0 and the second presents a flux condition Tx(0,t)=qt\al/2 T_x (0, t) = \frac {q} {t ^ {\al/2}} . An equivalence between these problems is proved and the convergence to the classical solutions is analysed when \al \al \nearrow 1 recovering the heat equation with its respective Stefan's condition.
