Calculations have been performed for Cu85Fe15 alloy to investigate the process of liquid-liquid phase transformation. The numerical results indicate that the minority phase droplets are nucleated in a temperature region around the peak of the supersaturation. The average radius of the Fe-rlch droplets decreases and the number density of the minority phase droplets increases with decreasing the atomized droplet size. The simulated results were compared with the experimental ones. The kinetic process of the liquid-liquid phase transformation was discussed in detail.展开更多
