cooling rate T˙ growth rate (VL), length scale of the representative phase of the
microstructure, morphology/distribution of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) and on the
resulting properties were investigated. Corrosion and tensile properties were determined on
samples solidified under a wide range of T˙ along the length of a directionally solidified Al−
6wt.% Cu− 5.0 wt.% Ni alloy casting. Experimental growth laws were derived relating the …
