Study on Shrinkage Development inside an Al-Si Alloy Casting by Computer Solidification Simulation

Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2016, Vol 17, Issue 47

Abstract

We show that the position and shrinkage volume results given by software using casting solidification simulation doesn`t always correspond with the experimental results. This can be explained due to the simulation analysis the flow of liquid alloy inside casting (from casting-mould). For a better determination about position and shrinkage volume from casting, the numeric results and graphics given by software must be processed and interpreted by user at the end of simulation. In order to determine the position and shrinkage volume from casting one must analysed the time when feeding channel is interrupted, volume of liquid alloy from casting at that time and the position of the hot spot. We show this example to be verified as experimental in. In the end, we show the numeric results given by software and the steps to follow.
