Abstract
Through computer simulation and direct observation of the freezing interface during directional solidification of succinonotrile acetone on a rotating table, the effect of double-diffusive flows due to gravitational and centrifugal forces on solute transport and morphological instability is investigated. Without rotation, the concave interface due to solidification induced bouyant convection and redsulted in local solute accumulation at the center of the interface. This led to pit formation and accelerated morphological breakdown. At medium rotation rate, the convection near the interface was suppressed, but the fast buildup of the solute caused much larger interface deformation and earlier morphological breakdown. However, if the rotation rate was high enough, the flow direction near the interface could be reverse and solute accumulation slowed down. Pit formation was eliminated as well.
