Resumen:
The mathematical model of the globular eutectic solidification in 2D was designed. Proposed model is based on the Cellular Automaton Finite Differences (CA-FD) calculation method. Model has been used for studies of the primary and of globular eutectic grains growth during the ductile iron (DI) solidification. A hyper-eutectic composition has been analyzed but this model can be used in the solidification modeling of hypo- and eutectic DI. The proposed model makes possible to trace the unrestricted growth of primary grains of two phases from the liquid, transition from free to cooperative solidification, and cooperative growth of globular eutectic.
