Effect of Latent Heat Related to Solidification Kinetics on Heat Transfer during Solidification of Al Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of the latent heat related to the rate of the solidification kinetics during solidification was investigated by using the heat transfer simulation. The latent heat was generated proportional to the amount of the fraction of transformed solid phase and directly affected the temperature compensation during solidification. The importance of the solidification kinetics was discussed by comparing cooling curves calculated using different solidification kinetics with experimentally measured cooling curve of A356 alloy.
