Danish

  

tilstedevaerelsen af dendritiske fremspring skyldes dels at der er en temperaturgradient ved stoerknefronten og dels,at der findes en flydende film,der er rig paa legeringsstof,der er forkastet af krystallen (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface), naar der danner sig kim i en smelte,og de vokser i en negativ temperaturgradient,opstaar der frie dendritter,d.v.s.dendritter,der ikke sidder fast paa en koldere vaeg,saaledes at varmen ledes vaek gennem smelten (the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), i et omraade,hvor temperaturgradienten er mindre,kan man iagttage langstrakte dendritter (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker). (various references)

   

Dutch

  

wanneer zich in de smelt kiemen vormen die bij een negatieve temperatuurgradiënt groeien,worden vrije dendrieten gevormd,dat zijn dendrieten die niet aan een koude wand gehecht zijn,zodat de warmte door de smelt wordt afgevoerd (the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), in een gebied waar de temperatuurgradiënt lager is,worden soms langgerekte dendrieten aangetroffen (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker), het ontstaan van dendrietknobbels wordt enerzijds veroorzaakt doordat aan het stollingsoppervlak een temperatuurgradiënt aanwezig is en anderzijds door de aanwezigheid van een vloeistoffilm die verrijkt is met de opgeloste elementen die door de kristalle (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface). (various references)

   

French

  

lorsque les germes naissent l'intérieur du liquide et croissent en gradient de température négatif ils donnent des dendrites libres, c'est- -dire non adhérentes une paroi froide, l'évacuation de la chaleur se faisant par le liquide (when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), l'apparition de protubérances dendritiques est due d'une part l'existence d'un gradient de température l'interface, d'autre part un film liquide enrichi en soluté rejeté par le cristal (the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface), dans une zone où le gradient de température est plus faible, on observe parfois des dendrites allongées (in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker). (various references)

   

German

  

wenn sich im Innern der Schmelze Keime bilden und bei negativem Temperaturgradienten wachsen, ergeben sie freie Dendriten, d. h. Dendriten, die nicht an eine kalte Wand angeheftet sind, so dass die Waerme durch die Schmelze abgefuehrt wird (i. e. dendrites which are not attached to a cold wall, the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), in einem Bereich, wo der Temperaturgradient schwaecher ist, kann man gestreckte Dendriten beobachten (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker), das Auftreten dendritischer Höcker ist einerseits dadurch bedingt,dass an der Erstarrungsoberfläche ein Temperaturgradient und andererseits ein flüssiger Film vorhanden ist,der mit gelösten Elementen angereichert ist und der von dem Kristall übriggel (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface). (various references)

   

Greek 

  

όταν οι πυρήνες σχηματίζονται στο εσωτερικό του τήγματος και αναπτύσσονται υπό συνθήκες αρνητικής βαθμίδας θερμοκρασίας τότε σχηματίζον (when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), μέσα σε μια ζώνη όπου η βαθμίδα της θερμοκρασίας είναι πιο χαμηλή παρατηρούμε συχνά την παρουσία επιμήκων δεντριτών (in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker), η εμφάνιση δεντριτικών προεξοχών οφείλεται αφ'ενός στην ύπαρξη μιας θερμοκρασιακής βαθμίδας στην εμδομετωπική επιφάνεια,αφ'ετέρου σ'ενα λ (the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface). (various references)

   

Hungarian

Italian

  

Quando nell'interno del liquido si formano dei germi che poi crescono in un gradiente di temperatura negativo si formano delle dendriti libere, ossia dendriti che non aderiscono ad una parete fredda, per cui il calore viene portato via dal bagno (i. e. dendrites which are not attached to a cold wall, the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), La comparsa di protuberanze dendritiche trae origine da una parte dall'esistenza di un gradiente di temperatura nel fronte di solidificazione e dall'altra da quella di una pellicola liquida arricchita di elementi disciolti e abbandonati dal cristallo (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface), In una regione dove il gradiente di temperatura è più debole si possono osservare dendriti allungate (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker).

quando os germes nascem no interior do líquido e crescem em gradiente de temperatura negativo,originam dendrites livres,quer dizer não aderentes a uma parede fria,realizando-se a evacuação do calor pelo líquido (i. e. dendrites which are not attached to a cold wall, the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites), o aparecimento de protuberâncias dendríticas resulta,por um lado,da existência de um gradiente de temperatura na interface,por outro lado dum filme líquido em soluto rejeitado pelo cristal (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface), numa zona em que o gradiente de temperatura é mais fraco,observa-se por vezes dendrites alongadas (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker). (various references)

   

Spanish

  

la aparición de protuberancias dendríticas se debe, por un lado, a la existencia de un gradiante de temperatura en el frente de solidificación y, por otro, a una película enriquecida con soluto rechazado por el cristal (and on the other hand to a liquid film enriched in solute rejected by the crystal, the appearance of dendritic protuberances is due on the one hand to the existence of a temperature gradient at the interface), en una zona en la que el gradiente de temperatura es más bajo, se observan algunas veces dendritas alargadas (elongated dendrites are sometimes found, in a zone where the temperature gradient is weaker), cuando los núcleos nacen en el interior del líquido y crecen con gradiente de temperatura negativa, dan dendritas libres, es decir no adheribles a una pared, efectuándose la evacuación del calor a través del líquido (i. e. dendrites which are not attached to a cold wall, the heat being evacuated by the melt, when nuclei form inside the melt and grow in a negative temperature gradient they form free dendrites).
