Numerical Simulation of Solidification and Process Optimization for Cast-steel Supporting Body
The numerical simulation software View Cast was applied to analyze the solidification process of cast steel supporting body in two types of schemes,and the position of the shrinkage defects was predicted.The original casting processes were optimized by enlarging the riser,changing its position and adding the chill block.The re-simulated result reveals that the casting could be feeding effectively,and the shrinkage defects are eliminated.The optimum scheme is determined by combining with actual produce,and the qualified castings are gotten.
