High Pressure Die Casting: Solidification
FLOW-3D helps engineers investigate the formation of internal porosity that can affect the quality of the final part. Also, FLOW-3D enables the investigation of segregation in binary alloys. Finally, a detailed temperature history helps determine whether chills or cooling lines need to be added or modified, and whether the initial metal temperature should be changed.
FLOW-3D enables engineers to investigate the formation of internal porosities, thermally induced stresses, and segregation in binary alloys. Also, a detailed temperature history helps determine whether chills or cooling lines need to be added or modified, and whether the initial metal temperature should be changed.
More information on FLOW-3D’s models for evaluating solidification and shrinkage, can be found in the Special FLOW-3D Models section.
