Abstract:The paper is devoted to obtaining an integral solution to the problem of convective heat transfer in the vicinity of the tip of a stationary growing nonaxisymmetric dendrite. The boundary integral equation for an elliptical paraboloid growing in a viscous forced flow is solved using the Green function technique. The total undercooling at the dendrite tip is found for single-component and binary melts, which is a function of the P\'eclet, Reynolds, and Prandtl numbers as well as the ellipticity parameter.
