I n the past few decades, the solidification behavior of binary alloys with dendritic, eutectic or peritectic reactions has been widely investigated. However, the alloys for industrial application are multicomponent alloys. The quasi-peritectic reaction, which was defined as: L+α→β+γ, where L indicates the liquid phase, and α, β, and γ indicate the solid phases, are usually observed during solidification of multicomponent alloys. For example, G. Sha et al. [1] investigated the as-cast microstructure of Al-Si-Fe alloys, and found two quasiperitectic reactions: L+Al 13 Fe 4 →α-AlFeSi+α-Al and L+α-AlFeSi→β-AlFeSi+α-Al. Additionally, the quasiperitectic reaction was also observed during solidification of solder alloys, such as Cu-Ni-Sn [2] , Pb-Bi-Sn [3] and Cu-Sn-Zn [4]. Recently, refractory alloys, such as Ta-Al-Fe [5, 6] and Nb-Al-Co [7] , which were treated as the potential high-temperature structural materials, also exhibit quasi-peritectic reaction. The solidification behavior of ternary alloys are much more complicated than the counterpart of binary alloys. Particularly, the solidification parameters, such as thermal gradient and cooling rate, have strong effects on the morphology, size,
