Effect of Soret diffusion on the growth of spherical crystals in supercooled alloy melts under oscillatory flow.

The growth of spherical crystals in binary alloy melts with thermal diffusion effects under oscillatory flow is investigated analytically. Using the multiple scale method, we derive approximate analytical solutions for both the crystal interface growth rate and the solute concentration. Our results...
