The conditions of solidification in a stirred bulk liquid are investigated to explain the non-dendritic microstructure of stircast alloys. A model of stirred solidification is presented, which allows a comparison of the solidification behaviour of metal alloys and organic analogues. This shows that nucleation and growth of solid in e bulk liquid is facilitated under the influence of stirring, provided the Prandtl-number is greater than unity. It is shown further that the solute gradient ahead of the solid-liquid interface of floating particles in a bulk liquid is reduced by the fluid flow. Combined with the thermal properties, and in analogy with the constitutional supercooling criterion, A is shown that solid growth in metals is likely to be cellular in an early stage of the solidification, In contrast, in stirred organic analogues, the solidification is dendritic in the early stage.
