Abstract Cellular automaton (CA) was used in simulating the microstructure
evolution during
solidification, and finite difference method (FDM) was
used in solving the conservation equations for heat transfer,
solute transfer and momentum transfer which govern the
macro--transport phenomena during solidification.
Coupling of CA with FDM (CA--FDM) could predict the microstructure
evolution under varied solidification conditions, including the length of
the columnar grains and the columnar-to-equiaxed transition (CET).
It was found that the ratio of nucleation rate and growth rate
is essential to the morphology formation and CET. To maximize
the number of the simulated cells, the virtual memory allocation technique
was adopted.
