The computational model for the simulation of freezing of supercooled water is presented. The model is based on the mesoscopic scale approach combining the analytical solution for the dendrite growth at small scales with the numerical solution for the temperature at larger scales. It utilizes the interface capturing methodology based on phase-field which is implemented in the open-source software OpenFOAM. The capability of the model is verified by computing cases of freezing of supercooled water at different initial supercoolings.
