Phase Field Method Simulation of Dendrite Crystal Growth of Metal Nickel Based on Fractal Theory

Abstract:

Using fractal theory simulation of dendrite crystal DLA growth model of pure substance, the undercooling during solidification process of crystal nucleation is simulated; and then in the crystal nuclei are formed on the basis of a pure substance, the phase field model and combined with the finite difference method further differentiation simulation of dendrite crystal growth. According to MATLAB programming, the simulation results obtained by field and temperature field can be seen in the DLA growth, growth model with random premise, for the same kind of material simulated dendrite crystal have both similarities and differences exist. Then, we can get the conclusion, through fractal growth of DLA model with phase field model of dendrite nucleation, growth process is carried out the simulation results, a simple by phase field model is more accord with the dendrite crystal in the experiment.
