The Numerical Simulation and Optimization in Squeeze Casting of the Air Conditioning Compressor Front Cover

Abstract:

Using the ProCast casting simulation software to make squeeze casting process simulation and analysis of the solidification process of the air conditioning compressor front cover and predict the location of gas volumes and shrinkage defects in the filling process. When adjusted the process parameters, volumes gas defects were eliminated, but there was still shrinkage occurs in the center. When imposed a secondary pressure on the central part, shrinkage was eliminated.
