Abstract
We show the multidimensional stability of subsonic phase transitions in a non-isothermal van der Waals fluid. Based on the existence result of planar waves in our previous work [1], a jump condition is posed on non-isothermal phase boundaries which makes the argument possible. Stability of planar waves both in one dimensional and multidi-mensional spaces are proved.
