ABSTRACT Rapid solidification of undercooled pure nickel and hyperperitectic Fe-(10-30) wt.% Ni alloys has been imaged at sufficiently high spatial resolution (64 x 64 pixels) and temporal resolution (40,500 frames/sec) to observe interfacial shape and solidification velocities exceeding 45 m/s. Imaging was of 8 gram, quartz-fluxed melts at undercoolings between 70 K and 300 K. Dendrite velocities within the melt were calculated from the surface velocities observed employing a simple geometric model of growth. Solidification was found to proceed invariably from a single nucleation point at every composition. In the case of Fe-Ni, primary solidification of both the equilibrium FCC phase and the metastable BCC phase was observed, with phase selection dependent upon the thermal history, composition, presence of heterogeneous nucleants, and degree of undercooling attained. In all cases of primary BCC solidification, a subsequent transition to the FCC phase was observed, resulting in a two-stage "double recalescence" evident in the thermal and video records. A primary solidification map was generated to predict the preferred phase for primary solidification as a function of composition and nucleation temperature for similar experiments with quartz-fluxed Fe-Ni specimens. The computer-based growth model enabled determination of solidification velocities with much greater precision than had been previously accomplished using pyrometric techniques alone. Growth velocity in pure Ni was found to follow an approximate powerlaw relationship with respect to undercooling up to some critical value AT*, where 150 K < AT* < 180 K. Growth velocities in BCC Fe-(10-12) wt.% Ni followed a similar powerlaw relationship, but no velocity transition was observed despite undercoolings of nearly 250 K. However, both pure Ni and Fe-Ni specimens did exhibit a secondary transition in solidification interface morphology. At smaller undercoolings, interface curvature was discontinuous, with tendencies toward growth along preferred crystallographic directions. At larger undercoolings, interfaces were completely smooth, with no discontinuity in curvature caused by irregular growth. Values for the morphological AT* were estimated at 160-170 K for pure Ni and 180-190 K for intermediate Fe-Ni compositions. Thesis Supervisor: Merton C.

Introduction One of the most interesting solidification phenomena to undergo extensive study in the last 30 years is the rapid solidification behavior of pure elements and alloy melts. Rapidly-solidified materials have proved to offer a wide range of desirable materials properties not exhibited by their conventionally-cast counterparts. For specimens exhibiting at least one thin dimension, numerous rapid solidification techniques have been developed which rely upon ultra-high rates of heat extraction (109-1012 K/s); examples include melt-spinning, splat-quenching, ion bombardment, laser-pulse heating, and many others. These methods, however, cannot be used in the production of large-scale ingots in the foundry, because the absence of a thin dimension makes it impossible to obtain the requisite heat-extraction rates. One alternative approach to produce rapid solidification in these cases is to achieve a large undercooling of the liquid melt prior to solidification. Undercooling techniques enable rapid solidification by lowering the melt temperature well below the liquidus prior to solidification, gradually removing a significant portion of the ingot's sensible heat. The resulting rapid solidification is caused by the increased thermodynamic driving force inherent to the highly-undercooled liquid, and a large portion of the solidification process can be made to occur in an essentially adiabatic manner, a phenomenon known as "recalescence." The undercooling phenomenon has been under considerable study for decades, and an important parameter of characterization has been the velocity with which the newlyformed solid propagates through the undercooled liquid during the solidification process. Prior film-based and electronic methods of measuring solidification velocities have met with variable success. In general, investigators have achieved either high temporal resolution (strategically-placed photodiodes), or high spatial resolution (conventional film- based cameras)--but not both. As a result, the velocity measurements from these experiments have suffered from a large degree of scatter. It is only recently that electronic imaging technology has developed to the point where there exists sufficient temporal resolution (up to 40,500 Hz with the system employed in this work) and spatial resolution (a 64 x 64 pixel image) to generate a complete visual record of the rapid solidification of a highly-undercooled specimen. This record, if properly interpreted, can be used to obtain the most accurate velocity measurements yet performed in this type of experiment. In the current work, an original computer model has been developed to analyze the photographic records of rapid solidification events and measure the propagation velocity of the solid/liquid interface. The method is first applied to melts of high-purity nickel--an extensively-studied material--in order to demonstrate the validity and accuracy of the technique. Analysis is subsequently extended to the solidification of binary Fe-Ni alloys, with special emphasis placed upon the exploration of the metastable 8-phase and related double-recalescence phenomenon. 2. Literature Survey 2.1 Pure Nickel 2.1.1 Methods of Investigation Numerous investigators have studied dendrite growth velocities in undercooled high-purity elements, particularly nickel, since the undercooling phenomenon was first observed in the Au system by Van Riemsdyk [1] in 1880. Walker [2] made the first thorough investigation of undercooled nickel melts using photodiodes to measure the time required for an interface to propagate along a column of molten material. Colligan and Bayles [3] used photodiodes in conjunction with high-speed cinematography, determining surface solidification morphology in addition to solidification velocities Subsequent velocity studies have primarily involved refinements in the placement of photodiodes and interpretation of the thermal record. Piccone, et al [4], for example, employed a single photodiode focused on a portion of an undercooled, quartz-encased nickel ingot in conjunction with a digital oscilloscope. Velocities were determined using the relationship V= At' (2.1) where D is the diameter of the pyrometer view field and At is the signal "rise time" for the recalescence, as depicted in Figure 2.1. This technique-like any technique that does not directly image the solidification interface--suffers from several inherent uncertainties regarding both D and At: first, the D value is an inaccurate measure of the distance traveled by the solidification interface unless it is certain that growth proceeded directly across the field of view of the pyrometer. In addition, a large degree of interpretation is required to derive a At value from a given thermal record; the sigmoidal shape of the temperature transition makes it possible to determine At consistently, but not precisely. Other researchers have employed electromagnetic levitation (containerless processing) to study undercooled Ni melts. One such example is the work of Willnecker, et al [5], who used two hemispherical photodiodes and calculated solidification velocities using signal rise time and geometric considerations. Hofmeister, et al [6], used a single, tightly-focused (1 mm) photodiode, supposedly to minimize the effects of potential multiple nucleation events. In the latter investigation, the reduced pyrometer spot size may have mitigated the effect of the unconstrained solidification path. In the former study, measurement accuracy may have been improved by constraining the solidification path via manually-induced nucleation at the south pole of the specimen. However, in both investigations, the results of the work again depend upon the interpretation of sigmoidal thermal profiles. Eckler and Herlach [7] used a polar photodiode and a unique capacitance trigger in their work, defining more accurately the duration of the solidification event. In this study, the moment of nucleation was marked by a jump in the capacitance of a metallic stimulation needle upon contact with the base of the specimen. As a result, pyrometry was only required to detect the end of the solidification event. Bassler, et al [8], were among the first to use a linear array of photodiodes--later moving to a two-dimensional array--in an effort to improve the spatial resolution of their studies. An iterative computer routine was employed in conjunction with the photodiode records to produce a calculated velocity associated with minimum deviation from the observed data. The work was also based upon the assumption that the solid/liquid interface remains convex to the liquid at all undercoolings; deviations were assumed to result from multiple nucleation events, and all such trials were thrown out. However, both the current investigation and prior work [3] have shown numerous deviations from the convex- interface restriction which clearly result from a single nucleation point. As a result, the validity of Bassler's "multiple nucleation" assumption is in question. 2.1.2 Experimental Results With the exception of Hofmeister and Bassler, the results of the above work are qualitatively and quantitatively similar (Figure 2.2). At small undercoolings, the investigators show an approximate power-law relationship between undercooling and solidification velocity, V = k (AT), (2.2) where 13 varies between 2 and 3. This behavior is relatively well-predicted by the "LKT" theory of Lipton, et al [9], particularly when a kinetic parameter is included in the analysis. At larger undercoolings, the results of prior investigations diverge more sharply, but many conclude that there exists some critical undercooling, AT*, in the range 170-190K, above which a normal LKT analysis is no longer valid. In addition, several researchers [10,11,12] have observed a corresponding microstructural transition at AT* in a similar range of values, marking the shift from a columnar dendritic grain structure to a finer, equiaxed structure. Notable also is the transition in solidification interface morphology identified by Colligan and Bayles in their high-speed cinematographic work. It was determined that surface interfaces displayed continuous curvature at undercoolings greater than 160 K, but shifted to a discontinuous, angular morphology as undercooling fell below 145 K. The scatter of undercooling-velocity data at undercoolings above AT* is quite remarkable, bounded at the lower end by the results of Hofmeister and Bassler, who report a constant velocity of about 20 m/s at all undercoolings larger than AT*. They propose that interfacial attachment kinetics is the limiting factor at these large undercoolings, while no satisfactory explanation has yet been proposed to explain the relationships observed by the other investigators. Scatter at undercoolings less than AT* is much less pronounced than at higher undercoolings and may be explained by variations in convective effects and methods of pyrometry, deviations from assumed specimen geometry, and, as supported by Eckler, et al [7], uncertainty regarding the growth direction of the dendrites. 2.2 Iron-Nickel 2.2.1 Metastable Phase Solidification One of the first observations of the tendency of hyperperitectic Fe-Ni alloys to solidify into more than one crystalline phase was made by Cech [13] in 1956. It was found that micron-range particles of Fe-29.5 at.% Ni cooled from the liquid state formed not only the expected equilibrium FCC phase upon solidification, but also frequently solidified into an unexpected BCC phase. A simple graphical extension of the liquidus and solidus lines of the (BCC) 8 phase on the equilibrium Fe-Ni phase diagram (Figure 2.3) supported the hypothesis that molten droplets of Fe-Ni undercooled below these extensions could solidify into a metastable form of 8 Fe-Ni. 2.2. 1. 1 Theoretical Basis Kelly, et al [14] presented a strong theoretical argument for the solidification of alternative (or nonequilibrium) crystalline phases from an undercooled melt based on the thermodynamics and kinetics of nucleation and growth. Numerical results for Fe-Ni showed that the metastable phase was indeed preferred for homogeneous nucleation under a wide range of particle sizes, cooling rates, and compositions. In the case of heterogeneous nucleation, wetting angle and other variables entered the analysis, but primary metastable phase solidification remained a theoretical possibility. 2.2.1.2 Powder Studies Subsequent powder studies have continued to reveal metastable phase formation from the melt in Fe-Ni alloys. Kim, et al [15] reported development of the alternative BCC phase in submicron droplets of Fe-30-, and Fe-40 at.% Ni, but not in Fe-50 at.% Ni. Thoma, et al [16] (an excellent review paper on this topic) found BCC solidification in a wide compositional range, proposing a map to define the structural evolution of solidified Fe-Ni as a function of both composition and undercooling. Although Libera, et al [17] managed to obtain thermal profiles of 44-46 Rm Fe-30 at.% Ni particles upon solidification, they were unable to salvage the individual particles and thus did not perform any microstructural evaluation. Also, the temporal resolution of their pyrometry was insufficient to reveal potential two-stage recalescence behavior. 2.2.1.3 Bulk Studies Investigations of bulk Fe-Ni specimens have further characterized metastable BCC phase solidification. The Thoma study reported no retained metastable BCC structure in larger (1-3 mm) droplets of Fe-(10 to 30) wt.% Ni; however, it was speculated that the cooling rate in these droplets was insufficient to suppress a solid state BCC-->FCC transformation, and that the initial solid phase to form from the undercooled melt may well have been the metastable 8 phase. Stronger evidence for the proposed transition was supplied by Zhao, et al [18] and Herlach, et al [19], who recorded fast thermal profiles of bulk Fe-Ni solidification events. These efforts revealed a double-recalescence behavior for certain hyperperitectic Fe-Ni specimens at sufficient undercoolings: initial growth of BCC material was followed by a plateau period near the metastable BCC solidus temperature lasting from about 1 ms to several seconds, followed ultimately by a transformation to FCC material from either a liquid/solid mixture or the solid state. These thermal profiles, in agreement with theoretical work by Chuang, et al [20] which more accurately defined the metastable liquidus and solidus lines for 8 Fe-Ni, provided an exceedingly strong indication that the metastable 8 phase was solidifying directly from the undercooled melt. 2.2.2 Experimental Results In general, the microstructure and solidification velocities observed in undercooled Fe-Ni melts resemble the results of the pure Ni work. The undercooling-velocity data from Barth, et al [21] for Fe-25- and Fe-30 at.% Ni are summarized in Figure 2.4; the behavior is reasonably well modeled by modified LKT analyses for the equilibrium FCC phase. The investigators argued that the data in Figure 2.4 reflects the existence of a critical undercooling (AT*) for both compositions at 175 K--similar to that of pure Ni-although this appears to be a more valid assessment of the lower data set. Above AT*=175 K, it was surmised that dendrite growth theory no longer offered an accurate prediction of the AT-V correspondence, indicating some shift in solidification mechanism. It is worth noting that this study assumed primary solidification of the equilibrium FCC phase in Fe-25- and Fe-30 at.% Ni. The Zhao study found FCC solidification in Fe-30 wt.% Ni, but primary BCC solidification in Fe-5- and Fe-10 wt.% Ni specimens. Other investigations identified a microstructural AT* which marked a transition from a dendritic structure below AT* to a much finer-grained, "spherical" structure at higher undercoolings. Early work by Kattamis, et al [22] indicated a AT* value of 170 K for Fe25 wt.% Ni. Abbaschian, et al [23] found a similar value of 175 K for that alloy, while the Barth study reported a microstructural AT* between 135 K and 180 K for a range of Fe-Ni compositions. One final experimental result of importance is the demonstration of phase selection or "phase seeding" in Fe-Ni through the use of a heterogeneous nucleation trigger of high catalytic potency. Herlach, et al [19], were able to induce solidification of the metastable BCC phase in Fe-(20-30) at.% Ni by surface stimulation with a trigger wire composed of BCC Fe 92 Mo 8 . Identical specimens displayed primary FCC solidification when allowed to recalesce spontaneously from similar or greater undercoolings. This result reveals the potential for reliable phase selection in this and other alloy systems through the use of carefully-selected heterogeneous nucleants.

Experimental Procedure Figure 3.1 shows a schematic of the apparatus used in the current work to obtain thermal profiles and visual images of undercooled specimens. 3.1 Specimen Preparation Two lots of high-purity nickel were used for this study, both obtained from Electronic Space Products International. The first lot was 99.9+ pct. (3N) pure wire stock; the second was rod stock of 99.999+ pct. (5N) purity. The iron used in the Fe-Ni specimens was 99.9 pet. pure flake obtained from Johnson Matthey Alfa Aesar. For each pure Ni specimen, approximately eight grams of either 3N or 5N material was cut, cleaned in ethanol, and then induction-melted inside an open-ended quartz tube on a bed of high-purity quartz frit (see Figure 3.2). The Fe-Ni specimens were prepared in similar manner from portions of 3N Ni wire and Fe flake pre-weighed to a nominal accuracy of ±.001 g. Compositions under study included Fe-10-, 12-, 15-, 20-, and Fe-30 wt.% Ni. For all specimens, prior to melting, the enclosing test tube was evacuated and flushed several times with high-purity Ar gas; subsequently, the gas was allowed to flow continuously through the test tube. Power for heating was supplied by a Lepel model T-10-3 10 kW radio-frequency current generator operating at a nominal frequency of 400 kHz. Energy was input to the specimen by an 8-turn, 1/8" copper tubing split induction coil. During a typical thermal cycle, the cylindrical ingot was inductively heated through its liquidus temperature to a maximum superheat of 100-150 K. The heating power was then switched off and the specimen was allowed to cool under the flowing Ar until either spontaneous nucleation occurred, or else nucleation was stimulated at the top surface of the ingot using a short length of Fe or Ni wire. 3.2 Pyrometry 3.2.1 Data Acquisition Temperatures were measured using a silicon photodiode-based Capintec Ratioscope III two-color pyrometer operating at near-infrared wavelength bands centered at 0.81 and 0.95 gim. Pyrometric data was recorded by a Nicolet 4094B digital oscilloscope with two model 4562 plug-ins and an XF-44 twin disk drive. During a typical run, the four differential analog inputs of the Nicolet were used as follows: two inputs sampled the pyrometer channels continuously at a rate of approximately 20-50 Hz, producing a 1-3 minute thermal history of a melt-superheat-solidification cycle. The other two inputs produced a high-speed recalescence profile by triggering upon recalescence and recording at the rate of 0.2-1 MHz for 4-20 ms,retaining an adjustable amount of pre-trigger data. 3.2.2 Data Analysis The results of each thermal cycle were saved in Nicolet-specific format on 5 1/4" floppy disk for archiving and then downloaded to an IBM PC-AT computer via a GPIB interface using the "Henry" file-transfer package provided by Nicolet. Usually, the 4094LTU transfer program was used, rendering the data into an older "LOTUS 1-2-3" spreadsheet-style format. The data was ultimately transformed into simple tab-delimited column format using a C program (see Appendix A4) in order to facilitate subsequent analysis. Temperatures were derived from each two-channel set of pyrometer data using the following relation: Tobs = Tref + m (Robs - Rref), where Robs is the observed ratio of the signal intensities of the two pyrometer channels: Robs = 10.95 gtm /10.81 tm,' (3.1) Tref is the temperature of a known reference point on the thermal profile, usually the liquidus temperature for a pure material, Rref is the ratio value observed at Tref, and m is the slope of an experimentally-obtained ratio-temperature curve, roughly linear over a range of several hundred degrees This linear relationship between ratio and temperature is an empirical one only; radiation theory [24] suggests the following dependence: R= k exp(4-,)(3.2) with k 2 -=(1.44x 104 m K 1 This equation predicts a theoretical variation in m, the slope from Eq. 3.1, of about 6% between 1726 K and 1426 K (a 300 K undercooling in pure nickel). However, the error in temperature measurement is reduced somewhat by defining m as the average slope observed in a wide range of undercoolings during a set of calibration experiments. These experiments require the immersion of a thin, zirconia-sheathed type-B thermocouple in the molten ingot, allowing simultaneous measurement of both pyrometer signal ratio and true specimen temperature. A best-fit linear analysis of the undercooling segment of the resulting ratio-temperature plot (Figure 3.3) yields the average m value for a given run. In the present work, the overall average slope value for nickel was found to be 880 +20 K-l1 ; this compares well with a value of 850 K-1 previously obtained [26] using the same setup. No reliable calibrations were performed for the Fe-Ni material; instead, an approximate value of 900 K- 1 was assumed. As a result, the absolute accuracy of the temperature measurements is estimated to be ±10 K for nickel and, conservatively, ±25 K for Fe-Ni specimens at the highest undercoolings. The conversion in Eq. 3.1 was applied interactively to the pyrometer data using a virtual instrument written in LabVIEW i running on a 100 MHz Pentium-based IBMcompatible computer. The resulting time-temperature profiles could then be evaluated to determine the extent of undercooling for each thermal cycle. 3.3 Image Acquisition and Analysis 3.3.1 Acquisition 3.3.1.1 Hardware The camera depicted in Figure 3.1 is a Kodak EktaPro HS Motion Analyzer, Model 4540--a high-speed digital camera. The device supports a maximum acquisition rate of 40,500 frames/sec, at which speed the image consists of a 64 x 64 pixel array with a precision of 8 bits/pixel. A 200 mm lens was employed in this work to capture an approximately 10 mm x 10 mm image from a working distance of about 40 cm. 3.3.1.2 Technique After each thermal cycle, selected video frames comprising the entire solidification event were recorded onto S-VHS videotape for archiving. In order to perform subsequent computer-assisted image analysis, the images from the videotape were re-digitized and stored on a Macintosh IIci personal computer using a frame-grabber expansion card and an image-processing package called IPLab". The frame-grabber sampled the videotaped images at twice the pixel resolution of the EktaPro 4540, producing 128 x 128 pixel images with an artificially enhanced resolution. These images were suitable for further analysis and digital image-processing using IPLab. i LabVIEW is a registered trademark of National Instruments, Inc. ii IPLab is a registered trademark of Signal Analytics, Inc. 3.3.2 Analysis 3.3.2. 1 Solidification Interface The camera observes growth of the solidification front by sensing a change in light intensity (and therefore temperature) near the front comprising the array of dendrite tips. This temperature change takes place over a distance of approximately a/V from the growth front interface, where a is thermal diffusivity for nickel and V is dendrite tip velocity. Taking a = 1.6 x 10-5 m2/s (refer to Appendix A2 for a summary of physical constants used) and a conservative solidification velocity of 5 m/s, the ratio of 3.2 gm indicates that the thermally measured growth front closely approximates the actual physical interface. 3.3.2.2 Processing The digitized images of the solidification interface were manipulated as follows: first, the location of the solid/liquid interface was consistently defined in each recorded frame by isolating only those pixels (xi, yi) included in a numerically-defined transition zone between the neighboring bright (solid) and dark (undercooled liquid) pixels (Figure 3.4a). The zone typically spanned about 5% of the intensity transition and was centered near 25% maximum brightness. As this interfacial band was identified in each individual frame, the interface pixels were incrementally incorporated into a 32-bit composite master image (Figure 3.4b). Since, in the general case, it was possible for a specific composite pixel (xc, Yc) to have appeared in the interfacial bands of multiple frames (for example, a slow-moving interface), special care had to be taken to ensure that the frame-by-frame pixel record could be accurately reproduced from the composite image. Thus, each interface pixel from an individual frame was made to contribute an increase in intensity of 2 N in the corresponding composite pixel, where N={0,1,2,...} was the frame number from which the pixel originated. 3.3.2.3 Composite Image Interpretation The resulting composite image was a two-dimensional matrix of intensity values which could be interpreted in the following manner: a zero at a given (x,y) position indicated that no pixels from any frame's solid/liquid interfacial band appeared at that location during solidification. Nonzero values were readily interpreted by their binary representation: a nonzero bit at arbitrary bit position M (counting the lowest-order bit as bit 0) indicated the presence of a pixel from the interfacial band of frame M. For example, a value of 0d192 = Ob 11000000 at coordinate (45, 63) indicated that the solid/liquid interface had been present at that location during frames 6 and 7 of the solidification record. In general, however, interface motion was fast and predictable enough that each coordinate contained either a zero or a perfect power of two. The composite image was finally transferred as text to a UNIX-based workstation for velocity analysis. There, another C routine (see Appendix A4) was used to create a formatted datafile listing the interface points by frame along with various supplementary information and calibration values. This datafile completely characterized the solidification event along the visible surface of the specimen and was suitable for input to the iterative solidification model. 3.3.2.4 Pixel Intensity Profiling One additional method of analysis which helped characterize the doublerecalescence phenomenon in Fe-Ni was pixel intensity profiling. In this technique, an IPLab script stepped through a series of solidification images and sequentially recorded the average pixel intensity observed in a very small (2x2 pixel) portion of each image. The result was a time-intensity profile similar to the output of a 40.5 kHz wide-band pyrometer tightly-focused on a -0.16 mm square portion of the specimen. No attempt was made to calibrate the observed intensities to true temperature in this work, since experimental conditions varied greatly from specimen to specimen; however, the profiles were very useful in establishing relative temperatures and defining successive stages in solidification. 3.4 Solidification Model 3.4.1 Assumptions An original computer-based solidification model (see Appendix A4) was used to calculate dendrite growth velocity within the melt from the observed surface propagation. The primary assumption underlying the model was that the solid phase grew spherically outward at a constant rate from a single nucleation point in an infinite undercooled melt; observed surface interfaces reflected the intersection of the expanding spheres with the physical boundaries of the ingot (Figure 3.5). It was expected that this assumption might begin to break down either at very small undercoolings or else during the latter portion of the solidification event, when remnant undercooled liquid may become significantly reheated by the neighboring solid. Shrinkage effects might also distort the assumed geometry of the specimen. It was assumed in addition that solidification proceeded quasi-adiabatically in the undercooled melt, and that the effects of the quartz enclosure on solidification kinetics were negligible. In this manner, the material at the quartz/metal interface could be assumed to be representative of the material in the bulk of the melt. This is another set of assumptions which will admittedly break down at very small undercoolings, when time scales increase and heat flow begins to become an issue. 3.4.2 Operation Operating under the constant-velocity assumption, the computer model first input all the (x,y) points from a given interface datafile and assigned a relative time value (relative to the acquisition time of the first video frame) to each point. The relative time consisted of an integral multiple of Tf plus a fractional value of Tf that varied with the screen location of the interface pixel, where Tf was the acquisition time for a single video frame. The fractional portion is required because the pixel elements are not scanned simultaneously, but instead sampled by four horizontal passes of a 1x16 pixel vertical raster block (Figure 3.6; see also effect on appearance of image in Figure 4.3). As a result, the relative time value for a given pixel (xi, Yi) in frame N is expressed as trel = Tf N + [floor ( 4'+ .xl) (3.3) Given the dimensions of the cylindrical ingot and a calibration value (mm/pixel), the model was also able to assign a z value to each (x,y) pair, thus defining each interfacial point completely in space and time. At this stage, there remained two unknowns: the exact coordinate of the nucleation site and the period of time which had elapsed between nucleation and the first video frame of the solidification event. Given any possible nucleation point (xn, yn, zn) and time delay (tn) the program was able to calculate a consequent average velocity for each frame based upon the location of its interface points (xi, yi, zi): P Vf_ where vi 1 P for V Di ti Di (3.4) Di =(xi - Xn) + (yi- yn)2 + (zi - zn)2 , ti = trel + tn, and P is the total number of interface points evaluated. The standard deviation of a group of average frame velocities, normalized over the average overall velocity, represented the degree of validity associated with the assumed nucleation position and time. The model proceeded to iterate over both position and time until it reached a local minimum in standard deviation, and the resulting solution was assumed to reflect the actual nucleation point of the solidification event.

Results and Analysis 4.1 General Observations The high-speed optical investigation produced thousands of images, with most recalescence events comprising between 5 and 100 video frames. A comparison of the pure Ni and Fe-Ni images revealed several trends which held for all compositions. 4.1.1 Multiple Nucleation Multiple simultaneous nucleation was never conclusively observed at any composition, despite detailed post-experimental review of both spontaneously-nucleated and needle-stimulated specimens. One or two apparent multiple nucleation events could instead be attributed to propagation from a single event on the back side of the specimen, during which the jagged leading edge of the dendrite array intersected with various unconnected points on the front (visible) surface (Figure 4.1). A particularly striking example of this phenomenon occurred during related investigation of Ni-25 wt.% Sn alloys, and is shown in Figure 4.2, in which the "apparent" new grains all have the same crystallographic orientation as the parent grain. These results do not imply that multiple nucleation can never occur. Instead, the video evidence is a strong indication that growth kinetics dominate nucleation kinetics in this sort of experiment. Moreover, the growing solid does not appear to have any influence on nucleation in the undercooled material ahead of the solid/liquid interface. 4.1.2 Interfacial Morphology The solidification interface was also observed at every composition to exhibit two distinct interfacial morphologies. The envelope of solid dendrites appeared macroscopically jagged at lower undercoolings, but smooth and convex to the liquid at higher undercoolings, a phenomenon previously reported by Colligan and Bayles [3] in pure Ni. This behavior will be further discussed in later sections devoted to the individual specimen compositions. 4.2 Lens and Wetting Effects A combination of two factors caused the diameter of the molten specimen to appear larger than the 11 mm inside diameter of the quartz tubing that housed it. First, a lens effect arose near the left- and right-hand walls of the tube when its contents were viewed from the side, due to the increased thickness of curved quartz between the viewer and the specimen. A secondary and more dominant effect developed when a hot specimen became molten and began to wet the inside wall of the tube; there was an immediate and significant apparent increase in sample diameter. After some experimentation, it was found that the best way to quantify the above phenomena was to introduce an immersion oil-soaked section of millimeter-rule graph paper onto the inner surface of the quartz tube in place of a specimen, and photograph the setup with backlighting (Figure 4.4). The immersion oil enabled the graph paper to wet the quartz in much the same way as the specimen, and the wetting and lens effects could be calculated by examining the apparent spacing of the vertical rules of the paper across the width of the image. The unaffected, 1 mm-spaced horizontal rules in Figure 4.4 provided a calibration value in terms of pixels/mm which could later be used to relate pixel distances to true distances when calculating velocities. The value was also fed into a small optimization routine, along with the positions of the vertical rules in the calibration image. The routine calculated that the data was best modeled by assuming the inside radius of the quartz tube was approximately 14% larger than its physical value. Figure 4.5 shows black model rule lines (Rapparent = 6.25 mm) superimposed over the gray observed rule lines (Ractual = 5.5 mm) traced from Figure 4.4, demonstrating excellent agreement over almost the entire width of the tube. In practice, data was never taken from less than about 1 mm away from the sides of the tube, in order to avoid the large error inherent to such measurements. 4.3 Solidification Model Behavior 4.3.1 Iterative Convergence As previously discussed, operation of the solidification model consisted of an iterative search for an optimum nucleation point, assuming constant-velocity growth of solid. The variables of iteration were, in order, tn (time delay), zn, xn, and Yn, where the positive z axis extended toward the camera. The model's ability to converge upon an exact solution depended greatly upon the true location of the nucleation point; complete convergence was far more likely if the nucleation point lay on the front surface than if it lay on the top, bottom, back, or interior of the specimen. 4.3. 1. 1 Convergence for All Variables Often, a spontaneous nucleation site appeared to be located on the front surface (metal/quartz interface) of the ingot. In some cases, the nucleant was clear upon review to have been an oxide particle or a scratch in the quartz tube; in other cases the only evidence was an initial solidification interface with a very small radius of curvature (Figure 4.3). For almost all of these "front-surface" nucleation events, the computer model verified the apparent nucleation site by iterating to convergence in all variables. The predicted nucleation point typically matched the observed point within approximately 0.5 mm, and the delay time between nucleation and first frame acquisition was between 0 and 1 frames-a required condition for a visible nucleation site. It should be noted that the model was also able to converge for all variables in some cases where the nucleation point did not lie on the front surface. For instance, there were a number of examples of needle-stimulated top-surface nucleation that were correctly predicted by the solidification model. More generally, in all cases of complete convergence, the model's optimum (xn, Yn, zn) coordinate was found to lie within a distance (.05*R) of the ingot's surface, where R represents either the radius (cylindrical surface nucleation) or the half-height (top/bottom surface nucleation) of the ingot. This behavior was interpreted as strong evidence that nucleation occurred at a metal/quartz or metal/gas interface in all cases in which it was not manually stimulated at the top surface by a needle. 4.3.1.2 Convergence on Cylindrical Surface In many other cases, the model was unable to reach an exact solution for tn, Zn, xn, and yn. This often occurred when the nucleation point lay unseen on a hidden surface and occasionally even when the point appeared to be located on the front surface of the specimen. In many of these cases, a solution was possible if the nucleation site was constrained to lie on the cylindrical surface of the specimen and the model iterated over only tn, xn, and Yn, with zn determined by the other two spatial coordinates and the geometry of the ingot. 4.3.1.3 Time-bounded Convergence A final general case occurred when no convergence was possible for any set of initial conditions because the optimum tn value increased without bound. As expected, the model often behaved in this manner when the true nucleation point was far removed from the front surface of the specimen and the camera had not recorded the initial portion of the solidification event. Fortunately, it was often possible to impose constant upper- and lower-bounds on tn in these cases and solve for the optimum (xn, Yn, zn) coordinates and solidification velocities given the bounding tn values. This was a particularly useful technique in the case of non-convergent needle-stimulated events, because the Yn coordinate was known to lie within a small distance of the (visible) top edge of the specimen. The strategy in these cases consisted of iterating with various fixed values of tn until two arguments were found which resulted in sensible bounding values of yn--typically, two pixels above and two pixels below the observed top edge of the specimen. The corresponding velocity values were also taken to be upper- and lower-bounds, and they did not often differ by more than five percent. In all cases where bounded solution sets showed a variation of more than 10% of the average solution, the solutions were removed from further consideration. This result typically followed when the radius of curvature of the first observed solidification interface was unusually large, supporting the notion that the camera had only observed the final portion of the solidification event and the model has broken down. 4.4 Pure Ni Results 4.4.1 Solidification Velocity Presented in Figure 4.6 are the solidification velocity values, plotted against undercooling, obtained from the computer model used in this work. Comparison with dendrite growth theory will be made using the so-called "LKT" model of Lipton, et al. [9], who adapted the Ivantsov dendrite growth model [25] using a marginal stability analysis (see Appendix Al for LKT development). Shown in Figure 4.6 are both the unmodified LKT prediction for pure nickel and the LKT prediction assuming a linear kinetic undercooling parameter [t = 0.40 m/sK. Clearly, there is fair agreement between experiment and theory up to some critical undercooling AT*, where 150 K < AT* < 180 K in this case. Above AT*, it is difficult to characterize exactly the relationship between undercooling and velocity, other than to observe that solidification velocity continues to increase. These results are in general accord with all of the prior work referenced, with the exception of Hofmeister and Bassler. 4.4.2 Interfacial Morphology A morphological analysis of the solidification interface at various undercoolings was carried out in the following manner: any specimen whose images exhibited discontinuous interface curvature not attributable to the camera raster pattern was classified as "jagged;" specimens showing only continuous interface curvature were called "smooth." This analysis revealed a transition undercooling range for Ni of 160-170 K, above which all solidification envelopes were smooth and below which all envelopes were jagged (Figure 4.7). This range is slightly above the critical range for morphological transition previously proposed by Colligan and Bayles. The temperature range does correspond well to the "critical undercooling" values observed on undercooling-velocity plots both in the current work (150-180 0 C) and by prior investigators. Furthermore, a morphological transition AT* of 160-170 0 C is also approximately equal to the microstructural AT* observed by Walker, Colligan, Schleip, and others in pure Ni. The present work strongly suggests that the morphological transition in solid/liquid interfacial shape and the observed transitions in velocity and microstructure are coupled phenomena resulting from the same intrinsic shift in solidification mechanism. However, the physical mechanism responsible for the transitions has yet to be satisfactorily explained. Various hypotheses point toward either a kinetic attachment limitation [6], the onset of dendrite fragmentation by remelting [26], dynamic nucleation via shrinkage-induced cavitation in the undercooled melt [27], or other fluid-flow phenomena. 4.5 Fe-Ni Alloy Results 4.5.1 Pyrometric Thermal Profiles Two typical high-speed thermal profiles from Fe-10 wt.% Ni specimens are shown in Figure 4.8. The upper profile represents a specimen which was not observed in the video record to have undergone double recalescence; instead, the equilibrium FCC phase solidified directly from the undercooled melt. This profile exhibits a clear thermal peak at the tail end of the rapid transition, approximately 10 K in amplitude and spanning about 0.1 ms. A similar phenomenon was observed by Piccone [28] during his studies of hyperperitectic Fe-Ni, Ni-Sn, and Fe-Co alloys using the same apparatus. He attributed the peak to superheating and subsequent remelting of a portion of the newly-formed dendrite array. The profile in the lower half of Figure 4.8 shows a specimen which did exhibit double-recalescence behavior in the video record. This behavior is clearly reflected in the thermal profile by a preliminary plateau at approximately 1495 K (near the metastable liquidus temperature) lasting for about 1 ms, followed by a secondary rise in temperature to near the equilibrium FCC liquidus with no characteristic thermal peak. Unfortunately, not every specimen which underwent double recalescence visible by the camera displayed such an unambiguous pyrometric profile. Many such specimens instead showed little more than a change in inflection, and sometimes no hint at all of double recalescence in the pyrometric record (Figure 4.9). Failure to detect multiple thermal transitions was probably a result of the pyrometer's relatively low spatial resolution; the view field of the instrument was between 6 and 10 mm in diameter for the duration of the work, and the output voltage reflected the average light intensity of the entire field. It is not surprising that transitions narrowly separated in distance or time were not crisply detected by this instrument. 4.5.2 Pixel Intensity Profiles The pixel intensity profiling outlined in section 3.3.2 was a much more reliable method of detecting and characterizing double recalescence events, despite its limited temporal resolution (40,500 Hz). In general, double recalescences were easily identified by a secondary intensity transition either on videotape or in an animation of the digitized images from a single event. Occasionally, the growth of FCC material took the shape of a nearly continuous interface which lagged the BCC solidification interface by a short distance. More often, however, the FCC transition was more diffuse, appearing to nucleate and grow from multiple points behind the BCC interface. In either case, the transition was predictable enough so that, at any given point on a single specimen, there appeared to be a roughly constant delay time between the passage of the BCC interface and the subsequent transformation to brighter FCC material. Due to the consistent behavior of the transformation, the choice of the target area for pixel intensity profiling was relatively unimportant; an arbitrary 2x2 pixel area free of oxidation or quartz discoloration was chosen for each event. The resulting time-intensity profile was generally a much more sensitive record than the corresponding pyrometer profile (Figure 4.10), giving a clearer indication of recalescence behavior and delay times between transitions, if not accurate temperature values. 4.5.3 Recalescence Behavior 4.5.3. 1 Characterization Recalescence characterization was accomplished through simultaneous examination of the pixel intensity profile, the high- and low-speed thermal profiles, and the video record. Double recalescences which were clear on the video record were almost always verified by a double-plateau in the pixel intensity profile and were considered clear instances of initial BCC phase formation. Apparent single recalescences on the video record were typically supported by single-plateau pixel intensity profiles; in addition, the high-speed thermal profiles in these cases generally exhibited a superheat peak on recalescence of about 5-15 K which was absent in the case of double recalescence. The video record was no help in the identification of secondary recalescence events which lagged the initial solidification by more than about 0.2 seconds, because video data was not recorded beyond this time. However, the low-speed thermal record was assumed to be sensitive enough to identify these delayed transitions. In cases where the recalescence behavior was truly unclear, the data points were omitted from plots and calculations. Figure 4.11 reveals the recalescence behavior of the various Fe-Ni specimens as a function of composition and nucleation temperature. Filled symbols indicate that primary BCC solidification and double recalescence occurred; outlined symbols indicate primary FCC solidification. Briefly ignoring the significance of symbol shape, one can interpret Figure 4.11 as a primary solidification map valid for all quartz-fluxed Fe-Ni specimens of similar aspect ratio weighing approximately 8 g and exhibiting the same cooling rate (phase selection depends upon the thermal history of the undercooled liquid as well as the presence of heterogeneous nucleants [17]). This work suggests that there exists a window of primary BCC solidification in hyperperitectic Fe-Ni bounded at smaller undercoolings and very large undercoolings by a transition to primary FCC solidification. The window appears to span about 150 K at 10 wt.% Ni, tapers to less than 120 K at 15 wt.% Ni, and has disappeared entirely at compositions of 20 wt.% Ni and higher. 4.5.3.2 Phase Selection via Induced Nucleation As noted earlier, both Fe and Ni trigger needles were used at various times to induce heterogeneous nucleation at lesser undercoolings, with the idea that the Fe (BCC from room temperature to 1185 K and from 1667-1811 K) might induce primary BCC solidification and the Ni (FCC through the entire range) might produce instead the FCC phase. As Figure 4.11 clearly reveals, these efforts met with no success at all, with the exception of three points near 1350 K in the Fe-12 wt.% Ni material. In those three instances, FCC material formed from the Ni trigger on a section of the map which otherwise featured solely BCC solidification. At all other compositions and temperatures, trigger needle structure seemed to have absolutely no effect on the determination of the primary solidification phase. Apparently, FCC Ni is simply not a sufficiently potent heterogeneous nucleant to have much of an effect on the kinetics of primary phase solidification in the compositions that were extensively studied. Perhaps a trend would have emerged if more data had been collected from the Fe-15 wt.% Ni alloy. 4.5.3.3 Delay Times in Double Recalescence The delay time between recalescences was defined on the pixel intensity profile as the time between points of maximum curvature at the beginning of each transition. The resulting correspondence between undercooling and delay time for double recalescence is shown in Figure 4.12 for the compositions which most consistently exhibited that behavior. Figure 4.12 reveals that average delay time drops with increasing undercooling in a roughly exponential manner. The data scatter may be an indication that there are several different mechanisms by which the FCC phase nucleates and grows into the mixture of undercooled liquid and BCC solid material. However, the data is in qualitative agreement with a theory that FCC formation requires the attainment of a critical local fraction solid, since the fraction solid immediately following recalescence can be expressed as: AT fs = AT AThyp where AThyp = AHf Cp (4.1) FCC nucleation may result from the impingement of growing BCC dendrite arms during the equilibrium solidification period following initial recalescence. 4.5.4 Interfacial Morphology A morphological analysis identical to that described in section 4.3.2 enabled the characterization of solidification interfaces as "smooth" or "jagged" for most compositions of Fe-Ni studied in this work. Figure 4.13 summarizes the results of the analysis. Once again, there is a rather sharply-defined transition from jagged to smooth morphology at a critical undercooling; this AT* is approximately 190 K for both Fe-10- and Fe-12 wt.% Ni. The exact value at higher Ni compositions cannot be precisely determined from the data, but it is evidently no more than 190 K, and not a great deal less. The range of 160-190 K previously identified for morphological transition in pure Ni would suggest that AT* decreases only slightly, if at all, as the specimen grows richer in nickel content. 4.5.5 Solidification Velocity Solidification velocities obtained from the computer model are given in Figure 4.14 for Fe-10- and Fe-12 wt.% Ni specimens which exhibited double recalescence (undercoolings are measured from the metastable liquidus temperature). The two sets of data are plotted on the same graph because LKT theory predicts a virtually identical undercooling-velocity curve for both compositions. Indeed, it is clear from the plot that the two data sets essentially overlap and are well-predicted by an LKT analysis for Fe-Ni using a kinetic parameter of 0.28 m/sK. The most notable aspect of Figure 4.14 is the clear lack of any transition in functional dependence in the range 170 K < AT < 190 K. Instead of the downward shift observed in this work for Ni (Figure 4.6) and in the work of Barth, et al [21] for Fe-25and Fe-30 wt.% Ni, the data continues to be well-described by LKT theory right up to undercoolings of nearly 250 K. In light of the observed transition in interface morphology, the lack of any corresponding shift in solidification velocity is somewhat difficult to explain. One difference between these Fe-(10-12) wt.% Ni results and the contrasting pure Ni and prior Fe-Ni work is that the primary solidification phase in the current work is a BCC material. Perhaps crystallographic structure plays an important role in determining the interface kinetics of these rapidly-solidified materials. Unfortunately, there is insufficient data in the present work at the higher Ni concentrations to draw any conclusions regarding the solidification velocities observed there for FCC Fe-Ni. A more likely explanation is that the velocity transition is not actually governed by a critical undercooling, but instead by a critical velocity which is comparable across materials. The transitions in the Barth work appear to begin somewhere above 30 m/s. The data in Figure 4.6 for pure Ni suggests that the critical velocity range corresponding to 150 0 C < AT* < 180 0 C is approximately 26 m/s < V* < 35 m/s; velocities of nearly 50 m/s were observed at the largest undercoolings. The maximum velocities observed for Fe-(1012) wt.% Ni in this work were only 30-35 m/s. Thus, if the transition velocity for Fe-(1012) wt.% Ni alloys is near the top of the range observed for pure Ni, it is not surprising that no transition was experimentally observed. However, regardless the explanation, it would seem that solidification velocity behavior and interface morphology are not strongly coupled in the metastable phase solidification of these Fe-Ni alloys, as seemed to be the case for pure Ni.

The undercooling and subsequent solidification of high-purity Ni and hyperperitectic Fe-Ni specimens were accomplished, and the thermal front accompanying the solidification interface was directly observed through the use of an ultra-high-speed digital camera from Kodak. The degree of undercooling was evaluated for each heating cycle through the use of a two-color pyrometer and subsequent calibration experiments; a solidification velocity was calculated for each recorded solidification using digital image analysis and an original computer-based solidification model. 2. At no time were multiple nucleation sites observed during a single primary solidification event. Instead, at lesser undercoolings the solidification interface exhibited a "jagged" morphology, a phenomenon which may, at lower resolution, present the appearance of multiple nucleation sites 3. The computer-based solidification model was successful in determining solidification velocities with less data scatter than had previously been observed using pyrometric methods. The model can also be made to track the growth of subportions of the overall dendrite array, in the event that a study of growth velocities observed in different crystallographic directions is desired. Pyrometric analyses exhibit no such flexibility. 5.2 Pure Nickel 1. The relationship between solidification velocity and undercooling for pure Ni showed general agreement with many prior investigations; namely, there was an approximate power-law dependence at low undercoolings which is well-described by the LKT solidification model. Above a critical undercooling, 150 K < AT* < 180 K, there appeared to be a partial shift in solidification mechanism, resulting in a secondary velocity dependence whose exact nature is unclear. 2. Observed at a similar critical undercooling (160K < AT* < 170 K) was a shift in interface morphology from "jagged" to macroscopically smooth, implying a change in controlling mechanism at the dendrite tips perhaps related to attachment kinetics, dendrite fragmentation, or fluid flow phenomena. The morphological and solidification velocity transitions appear to be coupled in pure Ni. 5.3 Iron-Nickel 1. Primary solidification of both the equilibrium FCC phase and the metastable BCC phase was observed in the hyperperitectic Fe-Ni specimens. The BCC phase appeared to be favored at lower Ni concentrations (10-12 wt.%), while FCC solidification was observed exclusively at 20 wt.% Ni and above. 2. A transition in interface morphology similar to that observed in pure Ni was also found in all compositions of Fe-Ni. The critical undercooling was well-defined around 190 K for Fe-10- and Fe-12 wt.% Ni specimens, and grew no larger at higher Ni concentrations. 3. Solidification velocities for BCC Fe-10- and Fe-12 wt.% Ni were plotted against undercooling and found to be nearly identical, as predicted by LKT theory. Agreement between experiment and theory was also excellent even at the highest undercoolings observed (250 K); there was no shift in velocity dependence as seen in pure Ni. A plausible explanation is that the shift actually occurs at a critical velocity, not a critical undercooling, but in any case it appears that interface morphology and velocity dependence are not coupled in Fe-Ni as they appeared to be in pure Ni. 6. Suggestions for Future Work 1. The structure of the solidification interface behind the dendrite tips has yet to be adequately understood. The high-speed images obtained in this work reveal an apparent thermal transition spanning a distance of several millimeters, but no attempt has been made here to develop a theoretical model for the behavior. One possible avenue for future investigation could be to use higher magnification to obtain high-resolution images of the apparent interface with the camera used in this work. 2. A theoretical basis is needed to explain the transitions in interface morphology and velocity dependence observed in this and similar work. Of the explanations offered to date (attachment kinetics, dendrite fragmentation, cavitation due to shrinkage effects, other fluid-flow arguments), none has managed to predict the phenomena experimentally observed in both alloys and pure materials. 3. A further study of the solidification behavior of Fe-Ni alloys using the highspeed camera could further characterize the double-recalescence phenomenon and help fill in the solidification map in this work at compositions outside Fe-(10-12) wt.% Ni. Experiments incorporating on-camera quenching, with subsequent microstructural analysis, might also shed light on the microstructural evolution that takes place following primary BCC solidification. Appendices Al. Solidification Theory The dendrite growth theory used to create the "LKT" solidification velocity plots for Ni and Fe-Ni in this work stems from the work of Ivantsov [25] and Lipton, et al [9], with additional contributions by Boettinger, et al [29], Aziz [30], and Turnbull [31]. In short, Ivantsov proposed the first analytic equation to determine heat flow in a solidifying dendrite tip realistically modelled as a parabaloid of revolution, resulting in a single relationship linking R, dendrite tip radius, with V, solidification velocity. Lipton, et al later derived a secondary relationship between these two variables on the basis of morphological stability arguments. The combination of this work and Ivantsov's prior relationship formed the most widely accepted theory of dendrite growth established to date. Incorporating modifications by the other contributors listed above, researchers were able to predict accurately the undercooling-velocity behavior observed in many different elements and alloy melts. For further information regarding LKT solidification theory, refer to the above work or individual treatments given by Piccone [26] and Barth, et al [21]. The next five pages show a numerical implementation of the growth model using the symbolic mathematics package Maple V 5.0', following closely the developments of Piccone and Barth. iMaple is a trademark of Waterloo Maple Software LKT SOLIDIFICATION MODEL IMPLEMENTED IN "Maple version 5.0," SYMBOLIC MATHEMATICS SOFTWARE AVAILABLE FOR UNIX WORKSTATIONS.
