A Fixed-Grid Front-Tracking Algorithm for Solidification Problems. Part II - Directional Solidification with Melt Convection
A numerical study of directional solidification has been performed using a fixed-grid front-tracking algorithm. The directional solidification of pure tin, as well as the horizontal Bridgman growth of pure succinonitrile, were investigated. In both cases, the growth front was stable and non-dendritic, but was significantly distorted by the influence of convection in the melt and, for the Bridgm...
متن کاملModelling of physical phenomena on Si melt during crystal growth process by Directional solidification method
Numerical simulation is a comprehensive tool in modern process development which is extensively used for promotion of crystal growth processes. Multi-crystalline silicon is an important material with advantages of low-production cost and high conversion efficiency of PV solar cells. The control of grains as well as the grain boundaries is particularly important to the crystal quality and thus t...
متن کاملModeling of Dendritic Growth in Alloy Solidification with Melt Convection
In typical solidification processes the flow of molten metal is usually regarded as an unavoidable phenomenon potentially affecting the morphology of dendritic growth. Fundamental understanding of such flow is thus important for predicting and controlling solidification microstructures. This paper presents numerical simulations on the evolution of dendritic microstructures with melt convection....
متن کاملModeling Melt Convection in Phase-FieldSimulations of Solidification
A novel diffuse interface model is presented for the direct numerical simulation of microstructure evolution in solidification processes involving convection in the liquid phase. The solidification front is treated as a moving interface in the diffuse approximation as known from phase-field theories. The no-slip condition between the melt and the solid is realized via a drag resistivity in the ...
