By establishing a diffusion model, the solute distribution is investigated during the growth of eutectic phase from the binary melt on the primary phase. Based on the eutectic reaction conditions, reasonable assumptions are carried out to build the partial differential equation. After the determination of the initial and boundary conditions, the analytical solutions have been derived from the method of variables separation. The solute distribution ahead of interface and the influence of this distribution on the growth rate of heteroepitaxial phase are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
