A Comparative Study on Gravitational and Centrifugal Casting Solidification
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2016, Vol 17, Issue 47
Abstract
It was studied the solidification of a part cast in both ways, centrifugal and gravitational. The study has been accomplished by computer simulation. Six casting variants were compared, three by centrifugal casting and three by gravity casting. The hot spot position, the solidification time, the solidification front movement, the temperature variation relative to time, the cooling and the solidification kinetics were analysed. The influence of the external cores and the mould coatings with protection layers it was studied too.
