| Summary: | The article concerns the experimental verification of the numerical model simulating the solidification and cooling processes proceeding in the domain of cast iron casting. The approximate course of the function describing the evolution of latent heat and the value of substitute specific heat resulting from its course were obtained using the thermal and derivative analysis (TDA) method The TDA was also used to measure the cooling curves at the distinguished points of the casting. The results obtained in this way were compared with the calculated cooling curves at the same points. At the stage of numerical computations, the explicit scheme of the finite difference method was applied. The agreement between the measured and calculated cooling curves is fully satisfactory. |
