(a) 2D-square mesh used in the temperature-field modeling and (b) the temperature profiles extracted from two locations: the center of the inner Zr51 alloy (Location 1) and another one locates in the outer Zr50.7 alloy, which is 50 μm away from the Zr51/Zr50.7 interface (Location 2), with inset showing the temperature distribution of the Zr51 and Zr50.7 alloys after 30 s drop-casting the Zr50.7 alloy melt into the copper mould.
