Precipitation of g' in a ternary Ni-Al-Cr-Alloy
The animation shows the distribution of the g'phase
during coarsening in a ternary Ni-Al-Cr alloy. For the first timea ternary alloy has been
simulated. The phase field model has been coupledto the thermodynamic software Thermo-Calc,
which yield molar Gibbs energiesand chemical potentials to evaluate the driving force at the
phase boundary.According to theories of Ostwald-Ripening it can be seen that smaller
particlesdissolve while the bigger particles grow.
