Book Description
Abstract: The fraction of melt which solidifies in the shot sleeve before the metal is injected into the die cavity is referred to as externally solidified products (ESP). ESP may affect the melt fluidity, cavity fill, microstructure and mechanical properties of final castings. The objectives of this research are to conduct simulations to investigate the amount of ESP formed during shot sleeve pouring and shot delay time period, and its distribution in the shot sleeve; to examine what amount of ESP will travel into the die cavity, and the final location of the ESP in the casting; to understand the gains and the limitations of computer modeling for the ESP study; to obtain insights on how to minimize or eliminate cold flakes in castings. The modeling activities in this research are categorized into two related studies. First, a FLOW3D athermal shot sleeve model was developed, which can estimate the ESP formation during the shot sleeve pouring and shot delay time period. The athermal shot sleeve model was developed and verified via an experiment conducted at OSU. Subsequently, the athermal model was applied to Briggs & Stratton's tensile bar casting to examine the ESP formation for this specific die casting process. Second, an isothermal cavity fill modeling using the marker/particle feature was developed to investigate ESP final distribution in the tensile bar cavities.

Casting Processes and Modelling of Metallic Materials
Author: Zak Abdallah
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 1839684313
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
This book, Casting Processes and Modelling of Metallic Materials, explores the various casting and modelling activities related to metallic alloy systems. The book provides results of research work conducted by experts from all over the globe to add to the research community in the era of the casting process and modelling. The book was edited by two experts in the field of materials science and modelling, Dr. Abdallah and Dr. Aldoumani, whom both have several publications in peer-reviewed journals, worldwide conferences, and scientific books. The book introduces the casting processes and then discusses the various issues and possible solutions. Over the past years, various models have been proposed and utilized to predict the performance of castings. Some of these models proved to be accurate whereas others failed to predict the casting performance. The strength of any predictive tool depends on the employment of physically meaningful parameters that replicate the real-life conditions. This has been illustrated in the current book with such predictive models and finite element (FE) modelling to illustrate the behaviour of castings in real-life conditions.
