Abstract Directional solidification of the Fe - 4,3 wt % C alloy was performed with the pulling rate equal to v=83 μm/s. Sample was frozen during solidification to reveal the shape of the solid/liquid interface. Structures eutectic pyramid and spherolitic eutectic were observed. The solidification front of ledeburite eutectic was revealed. The leading phase was identified and defined.

ABSTRACTStudies have been made of the microstructures developed in directionally solidified monotectic Al-In, Al-Bi and Zn-Bi alloys, as a function of growth velocity and temperature gradient. With increasing growth velocity and decreasing gradient the microstructures show transitions from regular rod-like arrangements of the lower melting point phase, through arrays of aligned droplets to coarse irregular droplet dispersions. Intermediate stages show rods with longitudinal shape perturbations of a classic Rayleigh-type instability. The changes are discussed in terms of oscillatory instabilities at the solid-liquid interface (enhanced by increasing growth velocity and decreasing temperature gradient) coupled with ripening effects in the solid + liquid region behind the interface.

Laser rapid forming (LRF) is a new manufacturing technology, which has been developed on the basis of multi-layer laser cladding. In the LRF process, the microstructure has important effects on the mechanical properties of the partsbut the control of microstructure is a problem. In this study, the influences of crystallography orientations of substrate and profile of solid/liquid interface on microstructure were discussed. Further, with the combining of the columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) model during alloy solidification, the growth law of microstructure of Rene88DT alloy was established. It has been found that the temperature gradient was lowest and the solidification velocity was greatest at the solid/liquid interface of the tail of molten pool, and hence the CET occurs easily at this position. The temperature measurement system of molten pool was developed by using a two-color infrared thermometer in this study. With the measurement of temperature gradient of the tail of molten pool by using a two-color infrared thermometer, the process parameters of laser multi-layer cladding were optimized. Finally, directional solidification even single crystal was achieved in laser multi-layer cladding.

In this work, we develop one- and two-dimensional phase-field simulations to approximate dendritic growth of a binary Al–2 wt% Si alloy. Simulations are performed for both isothermal as well as directional solidification. Anisotropic interface energies are included with fourfold symmetries, and the dilute alloy assumption is imposed. The isothermal results confirm the decrease in the maximum concentration for larger interface velocities as well as reveal the presence of parabolic, dendrite tips evolving along directions of maximum interface energy. The directional solidification results further confirm the formation of distinctive secondary dendritic arm structures that evolve at regular intervals along the unstable solid/liquid interface.
