An experimental investigation of convection in a fluid that exhibits phase change [PDF]
Convection flows were systematically observed in a layer of fluid between two isothermal horizontal boundaries. The working fluid was a nematic liquid crystal, which exhibits a liquid-liquid phase change at which latent heat is released and the density ...

Phase Transition of Generalized Ferromagnetic Potts Model - Effect of Invisible States -
We investigate the nature of the phase transition of the ferromagnetic Potts model with invisible states. The ferromagnetic Potts model with invisible states can be regarded as straightforward extension of the standard ferromagnetic Potts model.

Iron melting curve with a tricritical point
Solidification as a first order phase transition is described in the Landau theory by the same equation as tricritical phenomena. Here, the solidification or melting temperature against pressure curve is modelled to end at a tricritical point.
