Abstract: The study of phase change processes governed by hyperbolic heat transfer is at an embryonic stage. We raise here some of the relevant questions and make some remarks on the formulation and qualitative behavior of hyperbolic Stefan problems. In particular, we correct an error in the interface condition appearing in two earlier studies, and present an explicit solution to a simple one-phase problem and study its behavior. Finally we describe an enthalpy (weak) formulation for a two-phase problem and report on a few numerical experiments based on it.
