Abstract
We present a phase field approach to modelling the growth of faceted crystals, illustrated for hexagonal platelets growing in hypereutectic Al-Si alloy. Simulation results confirm experimental evidence that there is a marked change from perfectly faceted morphology to dendritic structures if the temperature at which nucleation occurs is reduced sufficiently
