Abstract
ABSTRACT Nonequilibrium thermodynamics and transportation kinetics near the propagating solid–liquid interface dominates the rapid solidification process, which is far from a thermodynamically stable state. Rapid solidification process can be described more precisely using quantitative thermodynamic calculation of phase diagram with nonlinear liquidus and solidus and evaluating the nonequilibrium effect in diffusion kinetics. Based on these basic principles, we have used a current nonequilibrium dendrite growth model to describe the rapid solidification process and the recalescence temperature of deeply undercooled alloys. Evolution of the key fundamental solidification parameters was also evaluated. The experimental data agree well with the model prediction.
