Abstract

A new 3D cellular automata-lattice Boltzmann method (CA-LBM) coupling model is proposed to simulate the formation of facet and facet dendrites in directional solidification. In this model, the CA method is used to simulate the crystal growth process and the LBM method is used to simulate the physical field in the calculation area. A new three-dimensional anisotropic function is introduced, and the model is modified by interpolation and neighborhood restriction. We add the remelting calculation model. The interaction between interface energy anisotropy and dynamic anisotropy is solved reasonably. The growth process and morphology of small plane and small plane dendrites were simulated.
