A multi-grain phase field model coupled with thermodynamic calculation was adopted to describe the dendritic growth in pressurized solidification of Mg–Al alloy during squeeze casting,in which the effects of the pressure on the Gibbs free energy and chemical potential of solid and liquid phases,the solute diffusion coefficient,and the solute partition coefficient were considered. The individual effect of solute diffusion coefficient,and the Gibbs free energy on the dendritic growth was studied. With the comparison of the dendritic growth under atmospheric and elevated pressures,the effect of pressure on the microstructure evolution was discussed. The results showed that the grains are refined,the dendritic growth rate tends to increase and the secondary dendrite arms are more developed as the pressure is increased from 0.1 to 100 MPa,which showed a good agreement with the experimental results of direct squeeze casting of Mg–Al alloy. As the pressure increases,the largest dendritic growth rate can be obtained under the pressure between 200 and 250 MPa,while the growth rate decreases with a further increase of pressure.
