Abstract
The classical eutectic growth models are based on the use of eutectic
composition. These models neglect the effect of the primary phase
formation and their direct using in the rapid solidification process of
off-eutectic (hypoeutectic and hypereutectic) alloys is absent. Combing
the effect of the primary phase in the eutectic transformation and an
off-eutectic composition, the solidification growth model is derived in
the present work. The effect of the model and materials parameters on
solidification kinetics is discussed in comparison with experimental
data. Computational results on the off-eutectic growth model show that
the model agrees well with experimental data on solidification kinetics
of Ni-B and Ti-Si alloys.
