Scientific paper

Directional solidification experiments were performed to evaluate the critical velocity of engulfment of insoluble particles by an advancing solid/liquid interface. The experiments were performed during shuttle flights in 1996 and in 1997 in preparation for Space Station experimentation. The first set of experiments used metallic matrices while the second set used transparent metal analogue materials. The latter allowed for observation of the interaction of the particles with the advancing solid/liquid interface in-situ and in real-time. An analytical and a numerical model were developed and successfully tested against the obtained data. .
