Great efforts have been made on the solidification of phase change nano-capsules (PCNCs). However, the analytical solutions received less attention when its initial temperature is not at the fusion temperature. Therefore, this work aims to analytically study the thermal behavior of PCNC with the same solid-liquid phase density during forced convective cooling when its initial temperature is greater than the fusion temperature. Asymptotic solutions are developed for long- and small-time scale. Asymptic solutions in the limit of large Stefan number to the solid phase temperature and the position...
