摘要
Ultrasonic vibration was introduced into the solidification of AZ91 alloy. Various microstructures were produced in this alloy using ultrasonic vibrations at different temperatures of the melt. The coarse dendrite microstructures were obtained with ultrasonic vibrations at temperatures below the liquidus temperature. The fine uniform grains were achieved under ultrasonic vibrations during the nucleation stage, which was mainly attributed to the cavitation and the acoustic flow induced by the ultrasonic vibration.
