Aspects Regarding Simulation with Cylindrical Coordinates of Solidification Casting
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2015, Vol 16, Issue 46
Abstract
Specialized software for solidification simulation of casting with rotational symmetry was conducted at the Transilvania University of Brasov. It is based on a 2D finite difference mathematical model with cylindrical coordinates. The software in cylindrical coordinates has the advantage that it simulates volume solidification of parts with rotational symmetry through 2D. This simulation provides a considerable reduction in the simulation duration. Depending on the part configuration and the network dividing step, the simulation time can be reduced by tens or hundreds of times. Another advantage of software in cylindrical coordinates is the simpler dividing of the system in finite elements. Also, it do accurate the representation of the contour for parts with rotational symmetry.
