Abstract

The solidification of a binary Fe-B melt is studied by computer simulation with regard for the temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficient and the possibility of nonequilibrium alloying-component entrapment (i.e., the dependence of the distribution coefficient on the ratio of the solidification rate V to the diffusion rate VD). The effect of high cooling rates of the melt on the dendritic morphology is analyzed. The dependence of the dendrite-tip growth rate on the melt supercooling is obtained. At large supercoolings, a morphological transition is shown to occur; it is related to the change from a diffusion to a diffusionless dendrite growth mode.
