Fig. 2.

Result of phase-field simulation for ΔTs,0 = 200 K and qs = 5 × 108 erg cm−2 s−1. A circle of 250 μ m in radius is the external shape of droplet and the target of the calculation is only inside the circle. Black and white regions represent crystal and liquid phases, respectively. The temperature distribution is shown by contours with labels indicating T − TM, namely, negative and positive labels mean supercooled and above melting point, respectively. The interval of the isotherms is 50 K. The initial condition (a), and t = 0.02 s (b), 0.04 s (c), and 0.06 s (d) after seeding.
