A major reason to conduct solidification experiments in space is that the unique conditions accessible in reduced-gravity allow investigation of fundamental questions while limiting the influence of sedimentation or buoyancy-induced convection. When processing metallic alloys using containerless electromagnetic levitation, convection may be controlled over a wide range, spanning the laminar-turbulent transition, by proper selection of facility operating conditions. By measuring key thermophysical properties such as density, viscosity, and electrical resistivity on-orbit, the specific sample being processed may be characterized and the results used to update pre-mission magnetohydrodynamic model predictions of induced stirring within the droplet. Thus, convection becomes a controlled experimental parameter that can be applied to an investigation of how stirring influences the metastable-to-stable transformation during rapid solidification of FeCrNi alloys. For these alloys, the incubation or delay time is observed to be a weak function of undercooling and a strong function of applied convection.
