Abstract An experiential nucleation model in solidification processes of the
industrial alloys was established by introducing the experimental
parameters. This model not only described nucleation rate of the
alloys quantitatively, but also linked the nucleation rates with the
final grain sizes. The surface area of effective catalysts per unit
volume melt and the contact angle of effective catalysts
in the melt in solidification processes were calculated
with the model and the nucleation characteristic of the casting was
analyzed. The model was also used to estimate the nucleation parameters
of Al-7Si alloy and Al-7Si-0.55Mg alloy in the definite melting
condition.
