Apart from the Lever rule and the Scheil-Gulliver equation, which concern two extreme cases, a long list of microsegregation models has been proposed. However, the use of these models often requires essential experimental input information, e.g., the secondary dendrite arm spacing(λ), cooling rate( ˙T) or actual solidification range(△T). This requirement disables these models for alloy solidification with no measured values for λ,˙T and △T. Furthermore, not all of these required experimental data are easily obtainable. It is therefore highly desirable to have an easy-to-apply predictive model that is independent of experimental input,akin to the Lever rule or Scheil-Gulliver model. Gong, Chen, and co-workers have recently proposed such a model, referred to as the Gong-Chen model, by averaging the solid fractions(f_(s)) of the Lever rule and Scheil-Gulliver model as the actual solid fraction. We provide a systematic assessment of this model versus established solidification microsegregation models and address a latent deficiency of the model, i.e.,it allows the Lever rule solid fraction fsto be greater than one(f_(s)> 1). It is shown that the Gong-Chen model can serve as a generic model for alloy solidification until fsreaches about 0.9, beyond which(f_(s)> 0.9) its applicability is dictated by both the equilibrium solute partition coefcient(k) and the solute diffusion coefcient in the solid(Ds), which has been tabulated in detail.展开更多
