GROWING NUMERICAL CRYSTALS
Vaughan Voller, and Man Liang, University of Minnesota
We revisit an analytical solution in Carslaw and Jaeger for the solidification of an an under-cooled melt in a cylindrical geometry.
We show that when the one-d axi-symmetry is exploited a fixed grid enthalpy model Produces excellent results.
BUT—when a 2-D Cartesian solution is sort—”exotic” numerical crystals grow.
This IS NOTA numerical crystal

The Carslaw and Jaeger Solution for a cylindrical sold seed in an under-cooled melt
Consider a LIQUID melt infinite in extentAt temperature T< 0BELOW Freezing Temp
At time t = 0 a solid seed attemperature T = 0 is placed in the center
This sets up a temp gradient that favorsthe growth of the solid

A 2-D Cartesian application of enthalpy model
Start with a single solid cell
When cell finishes freezing “infect” -- seed liquid cells in mane compass directions

Initial-Seed Infection
This choice will grow a fairly nice four-fold symmetry dendritic crystal is a stableconfiguration
(1) where is the anisotropy
(2) Why is growth stable (no surface tension of kinetic surface under-cooling)
Pleasing at first!!! But not physically reasonable
1. The initial seed, grid geometry and infection routine introduce artificial anisotropy
2. The grid size enforces a stable configuration—largest microstructure has to be at grid size

Serious codes impose anisotropy-and include surface tension and kinetic effects
But the choice of seed shape and grid can (will) cause artificial anisotropic effects
With the Cartesian grid Hard to avoid non-cylindrical perturbations Which will always locate in a region favorable for growthIf imposed anisotropy is weak this feature will swampPhysical effect and lead to a Numerical Crystal
Numerical Crystal
Can The similarity solution be used to test the intrinsic grid anisotropy in numerical crystal growth simulators ?

Conclusions:
1. Growth of a cylindrical solid seed in an undercooled binary alloy melt can (in the absence of imposed anisotropy, surface tension and kinetic effects) be resolved with a similarity solution and axisymmetric enthalpy code

2. On Cartesian structured grid however the enthalpy method breaksdown and—due to artificial grid anisotropy grows NUMERICAL crystals stabilized by grid cell size.
3. Similarity solutionstringent test of abilityOf a given method to suppress grid anisotropy

What about unstructured meshes ? We get a sea-weed pattern
Can we use this as a CA solver for channels in a delta
