Investigation on stability of directionally solidified CBr4-C2Cl6 lamellar eutectic by using multiphase field simulation

With the multiphase field method, the stability of lamellar basic state is investigated during the directional solidification of eutectic alloy CBr4-C2Cl6. A great number of lamellar patterns observed in experiments are simulated, and a stability diagram for lamellar pattern selections is presented. The simulated growth behaviours of these patterns are found to be qualitatively consistent with Karma et al＇s numerical calculations and experimental results. The formation of the primary instability is attributed to the destabilization of solute boundary layer.     

Influence of isothermal approximation on the phase-field simulation of directional growth in undercooled melt

By using the phase-field approach,we have simulated the directional growth of alloys in undercooled moten states under the isothermal and nonisothermal conditions.The influences of the isothermal approximation on simulation results are discussed.We found that for undercooling greater than 25K,the isothermal approximation overestimates the interface growth velocity and reduces a critical velocity for an absolute stable planar interface,thus in this simulation,the uinterface morphology shows the plane-cell-plane transition with increasing initial undercooling of the mele,and the planar interface obtained under a large undercooling is absolutely stable.Whereas in the nonisothermal simulation,only plane-cell transition occures in the same range of the initial undercoolings of the melt,and the planar interface tends to be destabilized and evolve into cells.     

相场模型模拟液固界面各向异性作用下自由枝晶生长

采用自适应有限元方法求解相场模型,分别对界面能各向异性和界面动力学各向异性条件下自由枝晶生长过程进行了模拟.计算表明两种各向异性均显著影响枝晶的生长,随着各向异性的增大枝晶尖端生长速度增大,尖端半径降低. 两种各向异性对自由枝晶生长有着不同形式的影响,在界面能各向异性条件下,枝晶生长稳定性系数与各向异性系数成幂函数关系;而在动力学各向异性条件下,稳定性系数与各向异性系数成线性关系. 关键词： 界面能各向异性 动力学各向异性 自由枝晶生长 相场模型     

过冷熔体中枝晶生长的相场法数值模拟

利用相场法模拟了过冷纯金属熔体中的枝晶生长过程,研究了各向导性、界面动力学、热扩散和界面能对枝晶生长的影响.结果表明,热噪声可以促发侧向分支的形成,但不影响枝晶尖端的稳态行为;随着各向异性的增加,枝晶尖端生长速度增加,尖端半径减小;当界面动力学系数减小及在界面动力学系数小于1的条件下热扩散系数减小时,枝晶尖端生长速度随之减小,而尖端半径相应增大;界面能趋于增大枝晶尺度并保持界面在扰动下的稳定,界面能越大,形成侧向分支的趋势越小 关键词： 过冷 枝晶生长 相场法 数值模拟
