Numerical Simulation of the Casting Process with Coupled Thermal and Stress Field

Article Preview

Abstract:

To understand the thermal distribution in a complex structure and high quality linkage casting, a mathematical model of temperature and stress field was established. Numerical simulation techniques was applied by using Procast software in the temperature and stress fields of solidification process, and the foundry defect such as old lap, misrun, shrinkage and dispersed shrinkage was predicted. The stress distribution and deformation in cooling process of casting were analyzed. The simulation results can supply a scientific foundation for foundry technology.
