Research on the Influence of Thermoinsulating Cores on the Functioning of Feeders (I)
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2010, Vol 11, Issue 29
Abstract
The paper presents the results of a study on the influence of heat insulation of feeders on the solidification of parts cast in silica sand moulds. The study was conducted by computer simulation of casting. The study concerned the influence of feeder diameter and of heat insulation on casting solidification, and further the influence of the thickness of thermoinsulating cores applied at the superior side of feeders on shrinkhole position and directing the solidification of the casting-feeder system.
