ABSTRACT: The effects of a forced flow on dendritic growth rate in binary systems are studied theoretically. By using the Oseen approximation of the Navier-Stokes equation, the linear stability analysis and the solvability criterion are analyzed as a function of the velocity of the forced flow and the impurity concentration in the melt in the three-dimensional model. The criterion obtained rallies analytic results for dendrite growth under forced convection in a pure system and dendrite growth in a stagnant binary system.
