Influence of cryoprobe cooling/heating rate on the course of freezing process

The methods of sensitivity analysis are used in order to observe the influences of changes of the cryoprobe tip cooling/heating rate on a course of biological tissue freezing process. The temperature history of tip temperature is assumed in a form of broken line. The direct variant of sensitivity analysis is here applied. At the stage of numerical modeling the control volume method is used. In the final part of the paper the examples of computations are shown.
