Relative to the Modified Jackson-Hunt theory: • Lateral flow increases spacing for Sn-Pb, Al-In (augments diffusion) • Lateral flow decreases spacing for Fe-C (opposes diffusion) • Predicted spacings are still too small for monotectics Current Work Summary Linear stability of a planar fluid-fluid phase boundary in directional solidification (monotectic L1 – L2 transition) Account for bouyancy, density change, Marangoni flow • Laplace-Young equation • Gibbs-Thomson equation • Classius-Clapyron equation
