In terms of proper initial and boundary conditions, a simultaneous iterated solution process coupling governing equations and compensatory terms is carried out within the SIMPLEC algorithm in the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) program FLUENT.
The program FLUENT, which is an excellent flow modeling simulation tool, allows us to obtain valuable information during casting process of the molten Al-alloy within the mould.
The initial conditions in this simulation are presented as: the temperature of the mould and the molten Al-alloy are 620 °C and 720 °C, respectively.
Fig.3 (b) shows the simulations of molten Al-alloy infiltrating throughout the mould at time t=0.2 s and t=0.5s.
Summary The considered examples of simulation indicate that CFD program (Fluent) can be treated as an attractive and useful tool for modelling the pressure infiltration casting process to produce open-cell metal foam.
