Research Abstract |
Al-Cu alloy is remelted by YAG laser and solidified rapidly in order to study the micro-tructure in the solidification. Specimen is cut out from the single crystal, because the initial micro-structure will affect the resultant micro-structure after laser treatment. The solidification is realized with growth rate near the absolute stability. The micro-structure is observed by the scanning microscope and the primary arm spacing is measured with the growth rate. The growth rate of dendrite and the temperature gradient at the interface are numerically estimated by the finite element method for heat conduction, MARC. The observed morphology is cellular -dendrite with very short arms. The primary spacing of dendrite decreased with growth rate, but the rate of decrease becomes smaller and smaller with increasing growth rate up to the absolute stability. The experimental primary spacing is compared with the available theoretical one. The theory is constructed for arrayed cellular-dendrite and the agreement between experiment and prediction is shown very well.
