Abstract

The paper presents practically unconditionally stable procedure for numerical study of phase transition in multi-component alloys. The algorithm is based on a conservative fully implicit finite-volume scheme and coupled solution of the governing equations of heat and mass transfer with respect to the vector of all unknowns. The proposed method is implemented for computer simulation of phase changes in a ternary alloy under industrially relevant conditions.
