Abstract
Experimental and numerical results show good agreement. The results present, as the temperature increases the temperature gradient increases and so the natural convection currents. Natural convection flow is quantified and proved to work as a stirrer for temperatures higher or equal to 1100 K, i.e., eddy currents of the metal flow are strong enough to break the weak nuclei. So coarse grains are obtained in the solidified structure.
