The numerical and analytical studies of solidification process of faceted 123(YBa2Cu3O7-X) crystals from liquid +211 (Y2BaCuO5) phases are essential to clarify the solidification mechanism and improve the properties of YBCO. Twodimensional numerical simulations of faceted peritectic growth of 123 crystal were performed by considering growth of 123 crystal, melting of 211 particles in the liquid, and solute diffusion in the liquid. The growth rate (Vk) of 123 crystal was approximated by: Vk=ak・ (DTk/Tp), where ak: kinetic growth coefficient, ak=ak0・[(tan j/b)・ tan h (b/tan j)・{1/cos (p/4)1}+1], ak0: growth constant, b: constant, j: angle between the interface and facet plane, and DTk: kinetic undercooling of faceted interface, Tp: peritectic temperature. Solute distributions in the liquid during the 123 growth were calculated with FDM, and the distributions of residual 211 particles and liquid pools in the faceted 123 crystals were simulated from the experimentally obtained lognormal distribution of 211 particles in the YBCO melt. The calculated results agreed well with the experimental ones. Further, the transition of macrostructures from columnar to equiaxed 123 crystals in unidirectionally solidified YBCO was also studied experimentally and analytically. The critical transition condition (:a function of growth rate (R) and temperature gradient(G)) were calculated by equations obtained from nucleation and growth theories, and compared with experimental results.
