Abstract
A method to predict the solid-liquid interface stability during unidirectional solidification is developed by coupling the M-S model with the CALPHAD method. The method was applied to Al-0.38 Zn and Al-0.34 Si-0.14 Mg (wt pct) alloys, and the predicted results were compared with some former experimental data of the two alloys. The good agreement between the calculation results and the experimental data demonstrates the superiority of the present method to the classical one based on constant parameter assumptions.
