The Mechanical Strength of Si Foams in the Mushy Zone during Solidification of Al–Si Alloys
The mechanical strength of an Al-30% Si alloy in the mushy zone was estimated by using a novel centrifugation apparatus. In the apparatus, the alloy melt was partially solidified, forming a porous structure made of primary Si platelets (Si foam) while cooling. Subsequently, pressure generated by centrifugal force pushed the liquid phase out of the foam. The estimated mechanical strength of the ...
متن کاملCellular instabilities in directional solidification
2014 We have studied the morphology of the solid-liquid interface during the directional solidification of thin (5-150 03BCm) samples of a dilute binary mixture (CBr4/~ 0.1 % Br2) . Above a critical pulling speed, for a given temperature gradient and solute concentration, the interface, initially planar, breaks down into a periodic cellular pattern. The bifurcation from a planar to a cellular s...
متن کاملOnset of sidebranching in directional solidification.
We use a computationally efficient phase-field formulation [B. Echebarria, Phys. Rev. E 70, 061604 (2004)] to investigate the origin and dynamics of sidebranching in directional solidification for realistic parameters of a dilute alloy previously studied experimentally [M. Gorgelin and A. Pocheau, Phys. Rev. E 57, 3189 (1998)]. Sidebranching is found to result either from noise amplification or...
متن کاملImportance 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...
متن کاملThe rapid advance and slow retreat of a mushy zone
We discuss a model for the evolution of a mushy zone which forms during the solidification of a binary alloy cooled from below in a tank with finite height. Our focus is on behaviours of the system that do not appear when either a semi-infinite domain or negligible solute diffusion is assumed. The problem is simplified through an assumption of negligible latent heat, and we develop a numerical ...
