Simulation study of cold steel feeding in steel die casting
To solve the problem of slow solidification of large ingots and the difficulty of eliminating internal shrinkage, a cold steel bar was fed into the molten steel during the solidification process after the completion of casting to affect the solidification process. Different cooling and solidificatio...

| description | To solve the problem of slow solidification of large ingots and the difficulty of eliminating internal shrinkage, a cold steel bar was fed into the molten steel during the solidification process after the completion of casting to affect the solidification process. Different cooling and solidification schemes for 60-ton 16-angle ingots were simulated by the finite element simulation software PROCAST. The simulation results show that the insertion of cold steel rods can shorten the full solidification time of the ingot. It is beneficial to improve the concentrated shrinkage in the central region under the conventional cooling scheme; in terms of the cold steel addition method, the decentralized addition of cold steel is more effective in improving the internal quality of the ingot. |
