The elastic energy term, 2η2 Y[hkl], was experimentally measured for single crystals of Ni-37.6at% Cu-6.1at% Si and Ni-36.8at% Cu-7.6at% Al alloys by the pulse echo method using the ultrasonic sound wave, and an influence of the anisotropy of the energy on the metallographic morphology was investigated for the two alloys. The Ni–Cu–Si alloy produces the typical modulated structure having highly aligned zones, while the Ni–Cu–Al alloy forms the mottled structure possessing a more random zone arrangement. Such a morphological difference between the both alloys does not come from a difference in anisotropy of the elastic modulus Y[hkl], but from a difference in the linear expansion coefficient per unit composition change η. On the Ni–Cu–Si alloy, η and anisotropy of the elastic modulus are large enough to produce the modulated structure, while in the Ni–Cu–Al alloy η is so small that the elastic energy does not make any influence on the morphology of the microstructure, although the anisotropy of the elastic modulus is fairly large.
