Modelling of dendritic growth during alloy solidification under natural convection
A two-dimensional (2D) lattice Boltzmann method (LBM)-cellular automaton model is presented to investigate the dendritic growth of binary alloys in the presence of natural convection. The kinetic-based LBM is adopted to calculate the transport phenomena by the evolution of distribution functions of moving pseudo-particles. To numerically solve natural convection thermal and solute transport sim...
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 کاملCrystal Growth and Dendritic Solidification
We present a numerical method which computes the motion of complex solid/liquid boundaries in crystal growth. The model we solve includes physical effects such as crystalline anisotropy, surface tension, molecular kinetics and undercooling. The method is based on two ideas. First, the equations of motion are recast as a single history-dependent boundary integral equation on the solid/liquid bou...
متن کاملIn situ quantification of the nucleation and growth of Fe-rich intermetallics during Al alloy solidification
Real-time in situ synchrotron X-ray tomographic microscopy was used to gain new insights into and quantify the nucleation mechanisms and growth kinetics of b-Al5FeSi intermetallics during solidification of an aluminium Al–7.5Si–3.5Cu–0.6Fe (wt.%) alloy. Three new insights were obtained. First, the plate-like b-intermetallics appeared to nucleate mainly on or near the primary aluminium dendrites...
متن کاملUpward and downward unsteady-state directional solidification of a hypoeutectic Al-3wt.%Mg alloy
Solidification thermal parameters, such as growth rate, cooling rate and dendrite arm spacing ( ), have been measured in a hypoeutectic Al-Mg alloy directionally solidified under upward and downward transient heat flow conditions. The experimental setup used in this work consists of a water-cooled mould with heat being extracted from the bottom or the top, promoting upward and downward directio...
