A Network Technique for Analysis of the Thermal Transient Casting Process
نویسنده
چکیده
A network approach to simulating the thermal transient casting process is presented and compared with experimental data and a continuum finite element model. For a sufficiently fine network, all comparisons are good. The approach is economical on computer effort and may be used f?r a first iteration in die design. The capability to model successive casting cycles is presented, which shows the die thermal history to achieve stable operation.

NEURAL NETWORK MODELING OF THE EFFECT OF COOLING SLOPE CASTING PARAMETERS ON PARTICLE SIZE OF PRIMARY SILICON CRYSTALS OF SEMISOLID CAST INGOTS OF Al-20Si (wt%)
Abstract: Cooling slope-casting processing is a relatively new technique to produce semisolid cast feedstock for the thixoforming process. Simple equipment, ease of operation, and low processing costs are the main advantages of this process in comparison with existing processes such as mechanical stirring, electromagnetic stirring, etc. The processing parameters of cooling slope casting are...
متن کاملMeshless analysis of casting process considering non-Fourier heat transfer
Casting is considered as a major manufacturing process. Thermal analysis of a solidifying medium is of great importance for appropriate design of casting processes. The conventional governing equation of a solidifying medium is based on the Fourier heat conduction law, which does not account for the phase-lag between the heat flux and the temperature gradient. In this paper, the concept of phas...
متن کاملStudy of multilayer and multi-component coatings deposited using cathodic Arc technique on H-13 hot work steel for die-casting applications
Die casting process is used since long, but even today problems like erosion, corrosion, soldering and sticking affect die life. These dies undergo thermal cyclic loads from 70 oC to 600 oC during processing. Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) hard coating can play an important role in such extreme applications. In the present work, we report the use of Chromium based multila...
متن کاملSolidification and thermal performance analysis of the low carbon steel during the continuous casting process
The present paper evaluates the effect of the nozzle characteristics on the heat transfer and phase change of the low carbon steel during the continuous casting process. A three-dimensional energy equation and a solidification model are used to drive the governing equation of the phase change and temperature distribution. A linear relation is obtained to predict the temperature-dependent of the...
متن کاملThermal Simulation of Solidification Process in Continuous Casting
In this study, a mathematical model is introduced to simulate the coupled heat transfer equation and Stefan condition occurring in moving boundary problems such as the solidification process in the continuous casting machines. In the continuous casting process, there exists a two-phase Stefan problem with moving boundary. The control-volume finite difference approach together with the boundary ...
