A cellular automaton (CA) method was developed in the 1990s for prediction of solidification grain structures. It coupled with a finite element (FE) to solve energy conservation equation at scale casting. Such coupling is revisited this contribution thanks recently proposed front tracking that gives correct solution heat flow problem which undercooling growing fronts define limits mushy zone taken into account. Validation provided by considering unidirectional solidification. Comparison...
A sensor was developed to measure the cooling curves inside a ferrous alloy during its solidification as centrifugally cast tubes. The temperature evolution at some points within is necessary evaluate heat transfer through outer surface of tube centrifugal casting process. Serious difficulties exist in this type measurement, because rotation mold and relatively high which poured. consists sheathed thermocouples positioned by convenient support internally rotating mold, metal layer. Although...
Abstract We present an application of a microsegregation model that takes into account the Soret effect. This model, summarized here, lies in context evaluation thermodiffusion influence alloys solidification. Initially, we deal with effect on scale. Subsequently, macrosegregation shall be analyzed. The was conceived similar considerations compared to Gulliver-Scheil approach. A dimensionless parameter emerged from which is potentially useful for assessing solidification binary alloys. In...
