A two-phase volume averaging model for globular equiaxed solidification is presented. Treating both liquid and solid (disperse grains) as separated but highly coupled interpenetrating continua, we have solved the conservation equations for mass, momentum, species mass fraction, and enthalpy for both phases. We also consider the conservation of grain density. Exchange or source terms take into account interactions between the melt and the solid, such as mass transfer (solidification and melting), friction and drag, Solute redistribution, release of latent heat, and nucleation. An ingot casting with a near globular equiaxed solidification alloy (A 1-4 wt pct Cu) is simulated. Results including grain evolution, melt convection, sedimentation, solute transport, and macrosegregation formation are obtained. The mechanisms producing these results are discussed in detail.
