Linear and nonlinear convection in solidifying ternary alloys

چکیده
In this paper we consider buoyancy-driven flow and directional solidification of a ternary alloy in two dimensions. A steady flow can be established by forcing liquid downward at an average rate V through a temperature gradient that is fixed in the laboratory frame of reference and spans both the eutectic and liquidus temperature of the material being solidified. Our results include both a linear stability analysis and numerical solution of the governing equations for finite-amplitude steady states. The ternary system is characterized by two distinct mushy zones – a primary layer with dendrites composed of a single species and, beneath the primary layer, a secondary layer with a dendritic region composed of two species. The two layers have independent effective Rayleigh numbers, which allows for a variety of convection scenarios.

Modelling of dendritic growth in ternary alloy solidification with melt convection
A two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann-cellular automaton model is coupled with the CALPHAD (Calculation of Phase Diagrams) method for simulating dendritic growth during ternary alloy solidification with convection. In the model, the kinetics of dendritic growth is determined by the difference between the equilibrium liquidus temperature and the actual temperature at the solid/liquid interface, in...

متن کاملEquiaxed Dendritic Solidification with Convection Part I. Multiscale/Multiphase Modeling
Equiaxed dendritic solidification in the presence of melt convection and solid-phase transport is investigated in a series of three articles. In part I, a multiphase model is developed to predict composition and structure evolution in an alloy solidifying with an equiaxed morphology. The model accounts for the transport phenomena occurring on the macroscopic (system) scale, as well as the grain...
متن کاملLie ternary $(sigma,tau,xi)$--derivations on Banach ternary algebras
Let $A$ be a Banach ternary algebra over a scalar field $Bbb R$ or $Bbb C$ and $X$ be a ternary Banach $A$--module. Let $sigma,tau$ and $xi$ be linear mappings on $A$, a linear mapping $D:(A,[~]_A)to (X,[~]_X)$ is called a Lie ternary $(sigma,tau,xi)$--derivation, if $$D([a,b,c])=[[D(a)bc]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}-[[D(c)ba]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}$$ for all $a,b,cin A$, where $[abc]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}=ata...
