For Pb-20wt%Cu alloys, severe macrosegregation due to density difference of the resulting phases in normal directional solidification has been minimized and a uniformly aligned dendritic structure has been produced by axially rotating the sample of 5mm diameter in conjunction with horizontal directional solidification. Under the constant growth velocity of $20{\mu}m/sec$, increasing the rotation rate from 0.18 to 12rpm results in a transition from an aligned columnar to an equiaxed Cu-dendritic structure. With a constant rotation rate of 0.18rpm, increasing the growth velocity from 10 to $50{\mu}m/sec$ also has promoted a transition from columnar to equiaxed structure.

The partial phase diagram of $NaNO_3$-NaCl system was investigated and the eutectic temperature was determined as $294.5^{\circ}C$. A typical rod eutectics of $NaNO_3$-4.56 wt%NaCl was directionally solidified. The results of interrod spacing, ${\lambda}_E$ as a function of growth velocity, V, were. obtained as ${\lambda}_E\;V^{0.39}\;=\;5.26$ (temperature gradient, $G_l\;=\;21.4^{\circ}C/mm$) and ${\lambda}_E\;V^{0.32}\;=\;5.45$ ($G_l\;=\;3.9^{\circ}C/mm$) and the exponent numbers of growth velocity were smaller than the theoretical value, 1/2. The sample rotation applied during directional solidification made the interrod spacing decrease slightly.

The effects of thermal gradient and solidification rate on the dendrite arm spacing and carbide morphology were investigated in directionally solidified Ni-base superalloy, CM 247LC. Thermal gradient was controlled by changing the position of the cold chamber and the furnace set temperature. The interface morphology changed from the planar to dendritic as increasing solidification rate. It was found that the dendrite spacing decreased as increasing the thermal gradient as well as the solidification rate. Also, as increasing solidification rate, carbide morphology changed from blocky shape to script and spotty shapes.

태양광 산업의 성장에 따른 개선된 실리콘 잉곳 제조 방법의 개발은 중요한 이슈 중 하나이다. 단결정 실리콘 웨이퍼에 비해 가격 변에서의 유리함으로 인해 현재 다결정 실리콘 웨이퍼가 태양광 시장의 60% 이상을 점유하고 있으며 주조법, 열교환법, 전자기 주조법 등을 포함한 몇 가지 응고 공정들이 개발되어 오고 있다. 이 논문에서는 ADS 법을 이용하여 대형 다결정 실리콘을 성장하기 위한 공정모사를 수행하였다. ADS 법은 적은 열 손실, 짧은 공정 시간 및 효율적인 방향성 응고가 가능하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. ADS 공정의 수치해석은 온도 분포를 확인하기 위해 유체역학을 적용하였고, 공정모사 결과 240 kg 이상의 대형 다결정 실리콘 잉곳의 효율적인 방향성 응고가 가능함을 확인하였다.

본 논문은 실리콘 원료의 용융과 방향성 응고에 의해 결정성이 양호한 방향성 응고에 대한 연구이다. 방사화 분석 결과 총 10가지 금속 불순물이 검출 되었지만, 농도 분포는 같은 위치에서 위와 아래의 차이는 크게 나지 않고, 어떤 특정한 위치에서 한쪽으로 집중되거나 어떤 경향성 없이 전체의 샘플의 모든 부분에서 농도가 거의 일정하게 분포를 나타냈다. 열 해석 시뮬레이션에 의한 결과, 용융은 유지 시간이 80분일 때 실리콘이 전체적으로 고르게 용융 온도에 도달하였고 냉각은 상부 냉각 온도가 $1,400^{\circ}C$와 60분 냉각 시 가장 좋은 결과 값을 나타내었다. 제작된 웨이퍼가 기존의 상용 웨이퍼보다 결정립계에서의 에칭이 훨씬 적게 이루어졌다.

The grain size and growth direction of a directionally solidified turbine blade were evaluated by the initial nucleation condition at the start block of directional solidification. The initial nucleation condition was controlled by inserting a Ni foil on the directional solidification plate of the directional solidification furnace. Fine grains with good orientation were obtained in the faster cooling condition at the start block. The nucleus number was compared with the cooling rate of the start block by electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD). DSC (differential scanning calorimeter) analysis was performed to compare the melting point and undercooling for nucleation of the coarse nuclei and fine nuclei of the start block. The faster cooling condition at the start block showed more undercooling for nucleation and smaller size of nuclei which resulted in a fine grain with good orientation in the directional turbine blade.

This study has examined the microstructural development in the Bridgman type directional solidification of hyper-peritectic Sn-Cd alloys, and the temperature and flow field have been numerically simulated to see if there is any change induced by convection. The directional solidification experiments carried out in quartz tubes with inside diameters of 0.4∼6mm showed that the resulting microstructures are clearly dependent on the size of tube diameters. The bigger ampoules where the effect of convection is highly expected produced saw-like structures resulting from the primary $\alpha$ and peritectic $\beta$ phase growing together at a planar solid-liquid front, with the former being surrounded by the latter. In the smaller ampoules, where the effect of convection is expected low however, the saw structure disappears, and as is understood from the theoretical prediction based on diffusion-controlled solidification the initial growth of the primary $\alpha$ phase is replaced by the nucleation of the peritectic $\beta$ phase whose growth continues to the end of the solidification.

Directional solidification experiments were carried out at 0.5-150 $\mu\textrm{m}$/s in the Co-base superalloy ECY 768. As increasing solidification rate, the dendrite length increased and it reached the maximum at 150 $\mu\textrm{m}$/s, where the tip temperature is close to the liquidus. The liquidus and eutectic temperatures could be estimated by comparing the dendrite lengths and the temperature gradients at the solid/liquid interface and those were estimated as $1424.6^{\circ}C$ and $1343^{\circ}C$ respectively. Between the dendrites just below final freezing temperature, MC carbide and $M_{23}$$C_{6}$ carbide were found. It was confirmed that the script or blocky shape was Ta or W-rich MC carbide, and the lamellar shape was Cr-rich eutectic carbide. The solid/liquid interface morphology clearly showed that the Cr-rich eutectic carbide formed just after the script type MC carbide.

Directional solidification experiments were carried out in a hypoeutectic Al-11.3Si-3.5Cu system to investigate the microstructural evolution with the solidification rate. At a fixed temperature gradient, a dendritic microstructure was observed at a constant speed of more than $25{\mu}ms^{-1}$, a cellular interface developed at $5{\mu}ms^{-1}$ and the growth rate of $0.5{\mu}ms^{-1}$ led to the stability of the planar interface. The results revealed that primary silicon phases formed among cells, even though the studied Al-Si alloy system formed the composition within a hypoeutectic silicon composition. This suggests that the liquid concentration among cells during solidification reached a higher concentration, i.e., the eutectic concentration. It is, however, interesting that primary silicon phases did not form during a dendritic growth of more than $25{\mu}ms^{-1}$. These experimental observations are explained using the theoretical models on the interface temperatures.

일방향응고 초내열합금 CM247LC의 응고조건에 따른 조직과 기계적 특성을 고찰하기 위해 초기 응고조건을 인위적으로 변화시켜 일방향응고를 진행하였다. 초기 응고 조건은 알루미나 판의 삽입, 접종재의 삽입, Ni foil의 삽입과 냉각판에 직접 주입 등으로 조절하였으며, 이에 따라 초기 결정립의 수의 많은 차이를 보였으며 응고방향과 평행으로 성장하는 결정립의 형태 및 γ' 석출상의 크기 등에서도 많은 차이를 보였다. 냉각속도가 빠른 용탕의 냉각판에 직접 주입한 경우 많은 결정립, 미세한 γ'상 및 γ-γ'공정상 등이 나타났다. 빠른 냉각은 고체/액체 사이의 온도구배를 증가시켜 일방향응고 후 1차 수지상 간격을 미세하게 함으로써 우수한 인장특성을 갖게 하였다.
