Abstract
Mass transport caused by buoyancy convection in front of the solid–liquid interface was evaluated in terms of measurements of primary dendritic spacing combining with separation of the effective (or integral) mass transport coefficient DL. It was shown that DL in normal gravity (1g) condition was 1.64 times as high as that in microgravity (μg) condition at the cooling rate (v) of 0.056 K/s for Pd40Ni40P20 alloy. The higher DL value is due to the contribution of buoyancy convection on the ground.
