Convection in Mushy Layers
As a molten alloy or any multi-component liquid is cooled and solidified the growing solid phase usually forms a porous matrix through which the residual liquid can flow. The reactive two-phase medium comprising the solid matrix and residual liquid is called a mushy layer. Buoyancy forces, owing primarily to compositional depletion as one or more of the components of the alloy are extracted to ...
متن کاملNonlinear oscillatory convection in mushy layers
We study the problem of nonlinear development of oscillatory convective instability in a two-dimensional mushy layer during solidification of a binary mixture. We adopt the near-eutectic limit, making the problem analytically tractable using standard perturbation techniques. We consider also a distinguished limit of large Stefan number, which allows a destabilization of the system to an oscilla...
متن کاملShear-enhanced convection in a mushy layer
We investigate the effect of an external shear flow on the buoyant instabilities inherent in the directional solidification of a dendritic mushy layer. In the presence of an external shear flow, perturbations of the mush–liquid interface lead to perturbed flow in the bulk fluid that create pressure variations along the mush–liquid interface. These pressure variations drive flow in the mushy lay...
متن کاملSolid-mush interface conditions for mushy layers
A subtle issue in the study of mushy zones which form during the solidification of binary alloys is that there are two distinct types of solid-mush interfaces which may occur. One of these is a eutectic front and the other is a front which separates the mushy layer and, assuming complete solute rejection, a layer of a pure solid. For semi-infinite domain configurations that admit similarity sol...
متن کاملGrouped Model Averaging for Finite Sample Size
Abstract: This paper studies grouped model averaging methods for finite sample size situation. Sufficient conditions under which the grouped model averaging estimator dominates the ordinary least squares estimator are provided. A class of grouped model averaging estimators, g-class, is introduced, and its dominance condition over the ordinary least squares is established. All theoretical findin...
