  • An approximate analytical solution for a two-phase Stefan problem is developed based on asymptotic analysis with fully phase-dependent thermophysical properties.
  • The presented asymptotic solution models outward solidification in cylindrical coordinates for phase change materials (PCMs).
  • The analytical solution has an excellent agreement with numerical results by the enthalpy method, yet with much lesser computational cost.
  • A wide range of thermophysical properties, geometric ratios, and Stefan numbers for the applications of PCMs are investigated.
