Near field asymptotic formulation for dendritic growth due to buoyancy

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlespeer-review

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the asymptotic analysis for a mathematical model of physical dendritic crystal growth problem. A theoretical framework governing the flow field and the temperature field under the effect of buoyancy-driven convection in the tip region of the dendritic growth is studied. By assuming the asymptotic expansions as the gravity parameter Gr → 0, the governing equations and the corresponding interface boundary conditions for the leading-order and the first-order expansions have been formulated.
