A high energy conversion and cost efficiency are keys for the transition to renewable energy sources, e.g., solar cells. The efficiency of multicrystalline solar cells can be improved by enhancing the understanding of its crystallization process, especially the directional solidification. In this paper, a novel measurement system for the characterization of flow phenomena and solidification processes in low-temperature model experiments on the basis of ultrasound (US) Doppler velocimetry is described. It captures turbulent flow phenomena in two planes with a frame rate of 3.5 Hz and tracks the shape of the solid-liquid interface during multihour experiments. Time-resolved flow mapping is performed using four linear US arrays with a total of 168 transducer elements. Long duration measurements are enabled through an online, field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based signal processing. Nine single US transducers allow for in situ tracking of a solid-liquid interface. Results of flow and solidification experiments in the model experiment are presented and compared with numerical simulation. The potential of the developed US system for measuring turbulent flows and for tracking the solidification front during a directional crystallization process is demonstrated. The results of the model experiments are in good agreement with numerical calculations and can be used for the validation of numerical models, especially the selection of the turbulence model.
