Abstract
A quantitative phase-field model for two-phase solidification processes is developed based on the anti-trapping current approach with the free energy functional formulated to suppress the formation of an extra phase at the interface. This model appropriately recovers the free boundary problem for the motion of interface in the thin-interface limit and, importantly, it is applicable to the solidification process in binary alloy systems with arbitrary values of the solid diffusivities and interfacial energies. The performance of the present model is investigated for the peritectic reaction process in carbon steel. The present model exhibits excellent convergence behavior with respect to the interface thickness.
