Abstract
In this paper a phase-field model of Penrose-Fife type is considered for a diffusive phase transition in a material in which the heat flux is a superposition of two different contributions: one part is proportional to the spatial gradient of the inverse temperature, while the other is of the form of the Gurtin-Pipkin law introduced in the theory of materials with thermal memory. It is shown that an initial-boundary value problem for the resulting state equations has a unique solution, thereby generalizing a number of recent results.
