Abstract
The first order phase transitions in binary alloys were simulated basing on the Cahn–Hilliard equation for metastable states with mobility depending on the local composition. The simulation was carried out utilizing the semi-implicit Fourier spectral method for 3D fragment of a solid solution satisfying the regular solution approximation. We defined kinetics of the main characteristics of phase distribution: nucleation rate, average size, concentration of precipitates and autocorrelation function etc. Peculiarities of different stages of binary alloy decomposition (nucleation, diffusion growth and coarsening) were analyzed both for constant and variable mobility.
