Importance of Melt Flow in Solidifying Mushy Zone

A mixture solidification model is employed to study the interaction between the melt flow and the growing mushy zone. The goal is to address the importance of considering the melt flow and flow pattern (laminar or turbulent) in the growing mushy zone. A simple 2D benchmark with parallel flow passing by/through a vertically growing mushy zone is considered. Parameter studies with different veloc...

Development and investigation of three-phase model of the mushy zone for analysis of porosity formation in solidifying castings

-In this paper a three-phase model (liquid, solid and gas) of the mushy zone for investigation of porosity formation in solidifying castings is developed. This model takes into account the release of the dissolved gas from the alloy as well as heat transfer and interdendritic fluid flow in the mushy zone. An important aspect of this work is related to accounting for the term describing porosity...

In this tutorial review the economies of synthesis are analysed from both detailed and macroscopic perspectives, using case-studies from complex molecule synthesis. Atom, step, and redox economy are more than philosophical constructs, but rather guidelines, which enable the synthetic chemist to design and execute an efficient synthesis. Students entering the field of synthesis might find this t...

Pacéré as the demiurge of orature Not all unwritten literatures are oral literatures. They would more appropriately be referred to as “spoken literatures”, in the wider sense of literatures that use different means of communication (mouth, gestures, body movement, instruments). The dumb “speak” with signs. Pio Zirimu proposed the term “orature” to palliate the alleged contradiction in the phras...
