The surface tension depends on tempera- ture linearly within the experimental undercooling regime of 0―182 K (0.12 TE). Its value is 1.693 N·m?1 at the eutectic temperature of 1488 K, and the temperature coefficient is ?4.23×10?4 N·m?1·K?1. For the specific heat measurement, the maximum undercooling is up to 253 K (0.17 TE). The specific heat is determined as a polynomial function of tem- perature in the experimental temperature regime. On the basis of the measured data of surface tension and specific heat, the temperature-dependent density, excess volume and sound speed of liquid Ni70.2Si29.8 alloy are predicted theoreti- cally.展开更多

It is found that there exists a critical undercooling about 185 K, beyond which a 揹endrite-equiaxed?growth morphology transition occurs in FeAl intermetallic compound. This transition is character-ized by sharp decrease of its grain size. Once the undercool-ing exceeds 215 K, the peritectic transformation is sup-pressed completely and a fibrous structure is formed, which results from the cooperative growth of FeAl and FeAl2 com-pounds.展开更多
