  The kinetics of an initially undercooled solid-liquid melt is studied by
means of a generalized Phase Field model, which describes the dynamics of an
ordering non-conserved field phi (e.g. solid-liquid order parameter) coupled to
a conserved field (e.g. thermal field). After obtaining the rules governing the
evolution process, by means of analytical arguments, we present a discussion of
the asymptotic time-dependent solutions. The full solutions of the exact
self-consistent equations for the model are also obtained and compared with
computer simulation results. In addition, in order to check the validity of the
present model we confronted its predictions against those of the standard Phase
field model and found reasonable agreement. Interestingly, we find that the
system relaxes towards a mixed phase, depending on the average value of the
conserved field, i.e. on the initial condition. Such a phase is characterized
by large fluctuations of the phi field.
