Simulations of the Van der Drift model for polycrystalline growth are described. These simulations have been carried out for conic and cubic crystals and the exponent p describing the growth of the linear monocrystalline domain size has been determined. For both crystal types p=0.4 is found, in accordance with previously obtained mean-field results. Moreover, the angular distribution of surviving crystals as a function of time matches the mean-field result very well.
