Abstract
Crystallization of materials in centrifugal force fields (CFFs) was carried out in an original device. Visual examination of monocrystals grown in this device revealed some morphological features of the monocrystals. A criterion of liquid self-rotation arising in a CFF was stated. An analysis of aluminium monocrystal morphological features, from the point of view of convection, Coriolis force, and vortex pair formation, brought us to the conclusion that the liquid rotates around its axis in a CFF in the form of a toroid, i.e. a dynamo effect takes place. An analysis of the influence of increased gravitation on the segregation coefficient was carried out, based on physico-chemical laws and on the theory of correlation functions for density. The CFF effect on several binary systems was stated.
