Abstract:
To promote/inhibit ice formation in the natural environment and industrial systems, the growth and evolution process of ice single-crystal nuclei were simulated using the phase field-lattice Boltzmann method(PF-LBM), and the influence of a background flow field on the growth of single-crystal nucleus dendrites was also analyzed. The results show that the flow field makes dendrite growth asymmetric. The growth of dendrites is more developed on the upstream side than on the downstream side. The dendrite tip growth rate and tip radius are greater on the upstream side than on the downstream side. The solid phase ratio is greater with a background flow field than without one. The higher the flow velocity is, the more developed the dendrites on the upstream side, the faster the dendrites grow, and the higher the dendrite tip growth rate. The dendrites on the backflow side have a lower flow rate and a lower degree of supercooling than those on the upstream side, which inhibits the solidification process, the growth rate is slow, and the dendrites are underdeveloped.
