Abstract
A numerical analysis is presented of the solidification of composition s close to Ni3Al. A two-sublattice thermodynamic model for the gamma a nd gamma' phases is combined with disorder trapping theory and dendrit e growth modelling based on the marginal stability hypothesis. It is t hereby possible to predict the composition and degree of order in the growing solid as a function of liquid composition and undercooling. Pr eliminary results are presented on solidification of the liquid of com position Ni-25at%Al.
