Macrosegregation in direct-chill casting of aluminium alloys

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Numerical modeling of porosity and macrosegregation in continuous casting of steel

1 ABSTRACT The continuous casting process is a widely used technique in modern steel plants. However, it is a complicated process that is not well understood. The objective of this research is to model the porosity and macrosegregation due to shrinkage related effects and solid deformation in the continuous casting of steel. Solid phase movements due to bulging and variable roll gap are modeled...

Effects of Casting Speed and Runner Angle on Macrosegregation of Aluminium-Copper Alloy.

Abstract During the solidification of binary metal alloys, chemical heterogeneities at product scale over a long distance range (1cm-1m) develop and this has detrimental effect on the resulting mechanical properties of cast products. Macrosegregation is of great concern to alloy manufacturers and end users as this problem persist. In this study, the use of process parameters namely casting spee...

Simulation of Convection and Macrosegregation in a Large Steel Ingot

segregates. Although good agreement with experiments was MACROSEGREGATION in large steel ingots is one achieved, the model relied on many approximations (such of the most well-known and now classical problems in the as estimating the flow velocities). It should also be menfield of solidification and casting.[1] It arises from the relative tioned that many models have appeared in the literature ...
