Abstract

A secondary dendrite arm spacing coarsening model for multi-component alloy is proposed, where the back diffusion flux in solid is simplified by introducing the parameter of solute boundary layer,δi. The simplified model was applied to the predication of the secondary arm spacing of directional solidified Al-Cu-Mn alloy. The good agreement between the experimental results and the calculated lines shows that this simplified model is satisfactory for the prediction of dendrite arm coarsening during solidification in multi-component alloys.
