Abstract The statistically significant experimental technique was developed to investi-gate the directional solidification behavior of a nickel-base superalloy. This technique in-volves quantitative description of the rough level of the solid/liquid interface by means offractal analyses. The image analysis system technique was employed and the fractal dimensionof the solid / liquid interface of the test alloy was obtained. The relations among the fractal dimensions of the solid / liquid interface, solidification rate, dendrite arm spacing and thephosphorus content in the test alloys have been given. It was found that the increases of thesolidification rate and the phosphorus content in the test alloy will lead to increasing fractaldimension of the solid / liquid interface with index law. Furthermore, combining the fractaltheory and the thermodynamic principle with the measured results, it has been proved that thefractal dimension is far from simple geometrical parameter used in describing irregular geom-etry. It is a state function which depends on different physical parameters.
