We use the cellular automaton (CA) modeling to investigate the ferrite nucleation on the austenite grains. On the basis of the thermodynamics and kinetics of phase transformation from austenite to ferrite, the CA modeling demonstrates that the size of nucleated ferrite grains is increased with increasing of cooling rates, and nucleation process is finished instantly at a given cooling rate. The initial austenite grain size plays an important role in the obtained ferrite nucleation number, and the potential nucleation cells are increased.

Melting and solidification are both phase transformations involving a liquid and a solid phase. In a simplifying procedure melting could be treated as the inverse process of solidification. However, there are substantial differences in the thermodynamics and kinetics of melting and solidification. The elaboration of a model for melting of binary alloys has lead to the possibility to also describe solidification processes more consistently. Input parameters in the model are the Gibbs Free Energy curves and the diffusion coefficients in the liquid and solid phase, respectively. Assumptions about the thermodynamic state of the interface like local equilibrium are not necessary, recently developed interface thermodynamics is coupled with the kinetic equations. Simulations results for steady-state melting and solidification are compared. The treatment of both solidification and melting yields some insight in the proper¬ties of the liquid/solid interface and its role during the phase transformation.
