    Description: During the directional solidification of alloys, solute inhomogeneities transverse to the growth direction arise due to morphological instabilities (leading to cellular or dendritic growth) and/or due to convection in the melt. In the absence of convection, the conditions for the onset of morphological instability are given by the linear stability analysis of Mullins and Sekerka. For ordinary solidification rates, the predictions of linear stability analysis are similar to the constitutional supercooling criterion. However, at very rapid solidification rates, linear stability analysis predicts a vast increase in stabilization in comparison to constitutional supercooling.

    Description: The stability of the parallel flow between a vertical crystal-melt interface and a vertical wall held at a temperature above the melting point of the crystal is analyzed for Prandtl numbers, P, ranging from 0.01 to 100. Three modes of instability occur: (1) a buoyant mode, (2) a shear mode, and (3) a coupled crystal-melt mode. The buoyant and shear modes are similar to those that occur for flow between two vertical rigid walls held at different temperatures. For Prandtl numbers greater than approximately two, the coupled crystal-melt mode occurs at a lower Grashof number than the other two modes. Specific results are given for succinonitrile (P = 22.8) and lead (P = 0.0225). These calculations and similar calculations for a cylindrical geometry were motivated by and are in general agreement with recent experiments on succinonitrile.

    Description: Recent experiments have shown that the presence of a vertical buoyancy-driven flow adjacent to an initially cylindrical crystal-melt interface may produce a time-dependent helical deformation of the interface, with a rotation period ranging from several minutes to many hours, depending upon the width of the melt. The temperature distribution is such that the interface is expected to be morphologically stable in the absence of fluid flow. A linear stability analysis reveals that the instability is due to a coupling between a basic hydrodynamic instability in the buoyant flow and the deformable boundary separating the two phases. The crystal-melt interface lowers the critical Grashof number of an analogous rigid-walled system by an order of magnitude for succinonitrile with a Prandtl number P = 22.8; furthermore, the hydrodynamic mode that is actually destabilized by the interface is not the least stable mode in the rigid-walled system for P = 22.8. The results show that the instability may be regarded either as a rather large alteration of a basic hydrodynamic instability by the crystal-melt interface, or as a significant modification of the morphological stability of the interface by the presence of the buoyant flow.

    Description: During solidification of a binary alloy at constant velocity vertically upward, thermosolutal convection can occur if the solute rejected at the crystal-melt interface decreases the density of the melt. We assume that the crystal-melt interface remains planar and that the flow field is periodic in the horizontal direction. The time-dependent nonlinear differential equations for fluid flow, concentration, and temperature are solved numerically in two spatial dimensions for small Prandtl numbers and moderately large Schmidt numbers. For slow solidification velocities, the thermal field has an important stabilizing influence: near the onset of instability the flow is confined to the vicinity of the crystal-melt interface. Further, for slow velocities, as the concentration increases, the horizontal wavelength of the flow decreases rapidly - a phenomenon also indicated by linear stability analysis. The lateral inhomogeneity in solute concentration due to convection is obtained from the calculations. For a narrow range of solutal Rayleigh numbers and wavelengths, the flow is periodic in time.

    Description: Linear stability of the one-dimensional flow between infinite vertical coaxial cylinders induced by heating the inner cylinder is considered for various ratios (kappa) of the inner radius to the outer radius, and for Prandtl numbers (P) appropriate to air and water. For air with P = 0.71 the least stable disturbance is nonaxisymmetric for kappa less than 0.44 and is axisymmetric for kappa greater than 0.44, and in either case the instability is due to the action of the shear forces. For P = 3.5, the situation is similar, except that the asymmetric shear mode is superseded by an axisymmetric instability driven by buoyancy forces for kappa = 0.03-0.16. Wave speeds, wavenumbers, and critical Grashof numbers for these cases and for the case of zero Prandtl number are given.

    Description: Computational fluid dynamics are used to discuss problems inherent to transonic three-dimensional flow past supercritical swept wings. The formulation for a boundary value problem for the flow past the wing is provided, including consideration of weak shock waves and the use of parabolic coordinates. A swept wing code is developed which requires a mesh of 152 x 10 x 12 points and 200 time cycles. A formula for wave drag is calculated, based on the idea that the conservation form of the momentum equation becomes an entropy inequality measuring the drag, expressible in terms of a small-disturbance equation for a potential function in two dimensions. The entropy inequality has been incorporated in a two-dimensional code for the analysis of transonic flow over airfoils. A method of artificial viscosity is explored for optimum pressure distributions with design, and involves a free boundary problem considering speed over only a portion of the wing.

    Description: An inverse swept wing code is described that is based on the widely used transonic flow program FLO22. The new code incorporates a free boundary algorithm permitting the pressure distribution to be prescribed over a portion of the wing surface. A special routine is included to calculate the wave drag, which can be minimized in its dependence on the pressure distribution. An alternate formulation of the boundary condition at infinity was introduced to enhance the speed and accuracy of the code. A FORTRAN listing of the code and a listing of a sample run are presented. There is also a user's manual as well as glossaries of input and output parameters.

    Description: It is pointed out that transonic flow is one of the fields where computational fluid dynamics turns out to be most effective. Codes for the design and analysis of supercritical airfoils and wings have become standard tools of the aircraft industry. The present investigation is concerned with mathematical models and theorems which account for some of the progress that has been made. The most successful aerodynamics codes are those for the analysis of flow at off-design conditions where weak shock waves appear. A major breakthrough was achieved by Murman and Cole (1971), who conceived of a retarded difference scheme which incorporates artificial viscosity to capture shocks in the supersonic zone. This concept has been used to develop codes for the analysis of transonic flow past a swept wing. Attention is given to the trailing edge and the boundary layer, entropy inequalities and wave drag, shockless airfoils, and the inverse swept wing code.

    Description: The shape of a stationary solid-liquid interface in a temperature gradient near a grain boundary in a pure material is calculated for anisotropic crystal-melt surface tension and equal thermal conductivities of crystal and melt. Results are compared with those for the well-known problem of the two-dimensional equilibrium shape of a crystal. For small anisotropy, the resulting interface shapes have continuously turning tangents but differ in detail from the grain boundary groove shapes that have been calculated for isotropic surface tension. For larger anisotropy, the interface shapes have discontinuities in slope as a result of missing orientations.

    Description: The effect of a forced Couette flow, parallel to a horizontal crystal-melt interface during directional solidification of an alloy of lead containing tin, on the onset of convective and morphological instabilities, is calculated numerically via a linear stability analysis. Such a flow does not affect perturbations with wave vectors perpendicular to the flow. For perturbations with wave vectors parallel to the flow, the onset of morphological instability is somewhat suppressed and thermosolutal convection is greatly suppressed. When instabilities occur, they are oscillatory and correspond to travelling waves. For values of the crystal growth velocity for which mixed morphological and convective modes occur, the presence of a forced flow produces sufficient decoupling to allow otherwise degenerate branches to be identified.
