Abstract
Numerical simulation of ice crystal growth in supercooled aqueous solution was carried out using 2 dimensional phase field model. An ice nucleus was placed in supercooled aqueous solution and the time evolution of the ice crystal was calculated. As a result, dendritic crystal with hexagonal symmetry could be reproduced. Growth rate of the dendritic crystal in the aqueous solution was compared with that in pure water, and it was found that the growth rate in aqueous solution became slower. In addition, it was found that the growth rate depends on the degree of supercooling.
