Model Testing of the 2nd Phase of Die Casting Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

nvestigations of filling the model mould cavity (with perpendicular walls) of the casting die by model liquids of various density and viscosity are presented in the paper. Influence of localisation of the inlet system and inlet velocity on the flow character of model liquids of different viscosity in the system of a cold-chamber casting die was tested. Calculations performed by means of the calculation module NOVACAST (NOVAFLOW&SOLID) for the selected models of cavities cast by the pressure method are also presented in the paper.
