The solidification process of AISI 304 stainless steel during cooling at a rate of 005 K/s has been observed in situ using a confocal scanning laser microscope (CSLM). The results show that the δ phase appeared first in liquid steel, as the temperature decreased, the γ phase precipitated prior at δgrain boundary at 1 4522 ℃, the liquid steel disappeared at 1 4313 ℃, and then the γ phase precipitated on the δ ferrite. Based on the ScheilGulliver solidification model, the solidification processes of AISI 304 stainless steel are simulated using the Scheil model in ThermoCalc, and the simulation results agree well with the results observed in the experiment.
