Abstract
The performance of technical alloys and electronic crystals strongly depends on the homogeneity of the solid material. It has been recognized since some time that the convective flow in solidifying melts has a vital contribution to that quality of the material. Many theoretical studies tried to predict the flow patterns, its effect on the interface morphology and its effect on the macrosegregation in the solid. Those studies were often benchmarked with transparent model melt experiments due to a lack of flow visualization in opaque metallic melts. This presentation is about radioscopic density visualizations of melting/solidifying alloyed materials.
