THE MIGRATION OF A LIQUID ZONE THROUGH A SOLID, PART 2

Abstract

The migration of slab, cylindrical and spherical zones through a block of solid under the influence of an electric field gradient has been analyzed theoretically. It was determined that the zone could migrate either up or down the field gradient, E*, depending upon the magnitude and sign of (i) the effective ionic mobility of the solvent atoms, U, (ii) the Peltier coefficient at the solid-melt interface, and (iii) the imposed temperature gradient, G*.
