Abstract

An array of columnar dendrites is important to the microsegregation and permeability of interdendritic liquid flow. In this study, an array of tilted columnar dendrites growing during the directional solidification of a binary alloy was investigated via large-scale phase-field simulation. The main conclusion is that the hexagonal array is the dominant array for reasonably tilted dendrites as well as dendrites that grow along the temperature gradient. It is also concluded that the array ordering gradually improves with growth for all tilt angles, and the ordering rate is faster for a small tilt angle.
