Abstract: This work presents an analysis of the traveling wave solutions resulting from the phase field model which has been proposed for solidification. It is shown that solutions only exist for very restricted values of the parameters involved and these values are investigated. The basic nature of the traveling wave solutions resulting from this model are also discussed.
