The obtained undercoolings vary from 93 to 203 K(0.14 T_L). It is found that the a(Co) phase always nucleates and grows preferentially, which is followed by peritectic transformation. This means that the peritectic phase cannot form directly, even though the alloy melt is undercooled to a temperature far below its peritectic point. The maximum recalescence temperature measured experimentally decreases as undercooling increases, which is lower than the thermodynamic calculation result owing to the actual non-adiabatic nature of recalescence process. The dendritic fragmentation of primary α(Co) phase induced by high undercooling is found to enhance the completion of peritectic transformation. In addition, the LKT/BCT dendrite growth model is modified in order to make it applicable to those binary alloy systems with seriously curved liquidus and solidus lines. The dendrite展开更多

The measured density of liquid lnconel 718 alloy is 7.39 g cm^-3 at the liquidus temperature of 1663 K which was confirmed by DSC experiment, with the linear temperature coefficient of -6.89 × 10^-4 gcm^-3 K^-1. Correspondingly, four ternary Ni-Cr-Fe compositions were designed to simulate the density of liquid lnconel 718 alloy with 16000 atoms, from which the liquid structure is revealed by pair distribution function, The predicted result shows a remarkable enhancement with the decrease of temperature at the first neighbor distance.展开更多

Under high undercooling conditions,the ternary eutectic consists ofε (Ag3Sb),(Sb)and θ(Cu2Sb)phases,instead of (Ag),(Sb)and θphases as predicted by the phase diagram.In the sample of small undercooling,the alloy microstructure is characterized by the mixture of primary θ(Cu2Sb),(ε+θ) and (ε+Sb) pseudobinary eutectics,and regular (ε+θ+Sb) ternary eutectic.With the increase of undercooling, θ (Cu2Sb) primary phase and pseudobinary eutectics disappear gradually,and ternary eutectic transfers from regular to anomalous structure.When undercooling exceeds 102 K,anomalous (ε+θ+Sb) ternary eutectic is the unique microstructure.Competitive nucleation and growth of these three eutectic phases is the main cause for the formation of complex growth morphologies.Based on the current experiments and theoretical calculations,it can be concluded that the intermetallic compound phaseθ(Cu2Sb) is the leading nucleating phase.展开更多

Grain refinement at low undercoolings was observed in the experiment in addition to that at high undercoolings. The current grain refinement mechanisms were examined, and it is concluded that the refined gains are all developed from dendrites, however the grain refinement at low undercoolings is due to chemical superheating, while that at high undercoolings due to rapid solidification contruction.展开更多
