Cooling channel free surface optimisation for additively manufactured casting tools

In the present study, an algorithm has been developed using the adjoint method to optimise the position and cross-section of an internal cooling channel for a 3D printed tool steel insert for use in the aluminium die-casting process. The algorithm enables the development of an optimised complex indu...
