In the phase field model of binary solidification the mobility terms which appear in the governing rate equations can be estimated from the liquid diffusion coefficients of the pure elements and the velocity of the solid–liquid interface as a function of undercooling. Molecular dynamics simulations utilizing embedded atom potentials have been employed to compute the liquid diffusivities for pure Cu and Ni in the vicinity of their melting points. In both cases the diffusion coefficient is found to vary linearly with temperature and the results are in good agreement with experimental values which are available for Cu. The simulations were also employed to obtain the boundary velocities in three different low index growth directions. The results for Cu and Ni were found to be very similar, with the slope of the velocity–undercooling curve at small undercoolings varying in the range 45–18
