Abstract

Abstract Solidification in binary alloy melts was simulated with two different three-dimensional models, that differ in the way the role of the solid/liquid interface energy on the solidification is expressed: either surface rearrangement or a surface curvature-dependent attachment probability was applied. In the melt, the simultaneous diffusion of all diffusing particles (atoms) was taken into account. Cellular –dendritic growth modes, as observed in practice, could be well simulated. The surface rearrangement model is essential for exhibiting details (as facetting) and the effect of the next-nearest neighbour interaction.
