A steady solution of the gasar eutectic growth in directional solidification

This paper presents the general mathematical model on gasar eutectic growth in directional solidification. Using multiple scale expansion and matching method, we obtain the global steady solution of gasar eutectic growth as the Peclet number ε≤1, where ε is defined as the ratio of half an inter-pore...

Summary:This paper presents the general mathematical model on gasar eutectic growth in directional solidification. Using multiple scale expansion and matching method, we obtain the global steady solution of gasar eutectic growth as the Peclet number ε≤1, where ε is defined as the ratio of half an inter-pore spacing and solutal diffusion length. We also give the interfacial shape and predict the porosity of gasar eutectic growth. Results show that porosity is mainly dependent on gas pressure above the metal melt, but independent of pulling velocity. Our predicted results are in agreement with experimental data.
