%X The study was carried out computer simulations of the formation process of AlN precipitates in the solidification of steel. The chemical composition of steel and non-metallic inclusions formed was determined using the commercial software FactSage. Calculated amount of precipitates formed during cooling of steel between the liquidus and solidus temperatures under conditions of thermodynamic equilibrium. In parallel, the computations were performed using your own computer program. It was found that aluminum nitride is formed at the final stage of solidification, and the condition of its formation is low oxygen content in steel.
