Planar Solidification from Undercooled Melt: An Approximation of a Dilute Binary Alloy for a Phase-field Model
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. Planar solidification from an undercooled melt has been considered using the phase-field model. The solute and the phase fields have been found in the limit of small impurity concentration. These solutions in the limit of vanishing velocity of the interface motion give the equilibrium partition coefficient and the liquidus slope. Asymptotic expansions for the solute and for the phase fields, and the relation between the diffusive speed and the parameters of the phase field model have been found at high growth velocity. A comparison with numerical calculations is presented.

Based on our previous developed 2D CA-FVM model, where the transport phenomna and kinetics conditions of solute-driven dendritic growth occurred in the solidification process with fluid flow were totally taken into consideration, an extensive model validation and furhter model application are demonstrated here. Firstly, the flow pattern of the lid-driven cavity is well predicted and quantitativ...
متن کاملDendrite Growth Kinetics in Undercooled Melts of Intermetallic Compounds
Solidification needs an undercooling to drive the solidification front. If large undercoolings are achieved, metastable solid materials are solidified from the undercooled melt. Containerless processing provides the conditions to achieve large undercoolings since heterogeneous nucleation on container walls is completely avoided. In the present contribution both electromagnetic and electrostatic...

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 ...

Using state-of-the-art numerical techniques, such as mesh adaptivity, implicit time-stepping and a non-linear multi-grid solver, the phase-field equations for the non-isothermal solidification of a dilute binary alloy have been solved. Using the quantitative, thin-interface formulation of the problem we have found that at high Lewis number a minimum in the dendrite tip radius is predicted with ...
