Effect of forced convection on dendrite growth kinetics

Abstract

In this work, using currently developing model of convective transport and dendrite growth, results on theoretical modeling are presented. A stable relation for the dendrite tip velocity V and its tip diameter ρ via the selection theory and undercooling balance ΔT is discussed. It is shown that convective transport plays essential role in quantitative description of dendrite growth kinetics. © 2019 Author(s).
