A one-dimensional transient heat-transfer model coupled with an equation for force balance on particles is developed to predict
the particle segregation pattern in a centrifugally cast product, temperature distribution in the casting and the mold, and
time for complete solidification. The force balance equation contains a repulsive force term for the particles that are in
the vicinity of the solid/liquid interface. The solution of the model equations has been obtained by the pure implicit finite volume technique with modified variable time-step approach. It is seen that for a given set of operating conditions, the thickness of the
particle-rich region in the composite decreases with an increase in rotational speed, particle size, relative density difference
between particles and melt, initial pouring temperature, and initial mold temperature. With reduced heat-transfer coefficient
at the casting/mold interface, the solidification time increases, which, in turn, results in more intense segregation of solid
particulates. Again, with increased initial volume fraction of the solid particulates in the melt, both the solidification
time and the final thickness of the particulate-rich region increase. It is noted that for Al-Al 2O 3 and Al-SiC systems, in castings produced using finer particles, lower rotational speeds, and an enhanced heat-transfer coefficient
at the casting/mold interface, the volume fraction of particles in the outer layer of the casting remains more or less the
same as in the initial melt. However, for castings produced with coarser particles at higher rotational speeds and reduced
heat-transfer coefficients at the casting/mold interface, intense segregation is predicted even at the outer periphery of
the casting. In the case of the Al-Gr system, however, intense segregation is predicted at the innermost layers. 相似文献

A close examination of the recent developments in the field of computer simulation of solidification process reveals that
a combination of both macroscopic and microscopic models is necessary in order to accurately describe the solidification of
castings. Currently available macroscopic models include models that describe heat transfer from metal to mold, fluid flow
of liquid metal during mold filling, and stress field in the casting. At the microscopic level, the models should include
more intricate issues such as solidification kinetics and fluid flow in the mushy zone. Although significant progress has
been accomplished over the years in each field, the task of including all of these models into a comprehensive package is
far from being complete. This paper describes the state of the art on coupling the macroscopic heat transfer (HT) and microscopic
solidification kinetics (SK) models and introduces the latent heat method as a more accurate method for solving the heat source term in the heat conduction equation. A new method for calculation
of fraction of solid evolved during solidification based on computer-aided cooling curve analysis (CA-CCA), as well as a method
based on nucleation and growth kinetics laws, is discussed. A new nucleation model based on the concept of instantaneous nucleation,
which is used to describe equiaxed eutectic solidification of commercial alloys, has been introduced. It is demonstrated that
the instantaneous nucleation model agrees well with the experimental results in terms of cooling curves and of evolution of
the fraction of solid during solidification. Validation results are also shown for SK models that are based on CA-CCA coupled
with HT models for eutectic Al-Si and gray cast iron alloys. 相似文献

During the solidification of metal castings, an interfacial heat transfer resistance exists at the boundary between the metal
and the mold. This heat transfer resistance usually varies with time even if the cast metal remains in contact with the mold,
due to the time dependence of plasticity of the freezing metal and oxide growth on the surface. The present work has studied
interfacial heat transfer on two related types of castings. In the first type, a copper chill was placed on the top of a cylindrical,
bottom gated casting. Using the techniques of transducer displacements and electrical continuity, a clearance gap was detected
between the solidified metal and the chill. The second type of casting had a similar design except that the chill was placed
at the bottom. Owing to the effect of gravity, solid to solid contact was maintained at the metal-chill interface, but the
high degree of interface nonconformity resulted in a relatively low thermal conductance as indicated by solution of the inverse
heat conduction problem. Finally, the influence of interfacial heat transfer on solidification time with three mold ma-terials
is compared by a numerical example, and criteria for utilizing Chvorinov's rule are discussed.

The mass transfer kinetics and alloying elements distribution in a coating layer on the titanium alloy VT6 were investigated, as well as the properties of the layer after electrospark alloying with tungsten free electrodes based on the refractory compounds of titanium and zirconium nitride. !t was shown that the microhardness of the alloyed layer is 3-S times, and of the heat affected zone 1.5-2.0 times greater than that of the initial material. The resistance of the coated samples to high-temperature oxidation was also substantially higher. 相似文献

Unidirectional solidification of pure metals has been studied as a function of liquid superheat, heat transfer coefficient

At the same time, it has been calculated that the constant A varies with h

An improved model describing the macrosegregation caused by mixing in the liquid bulk melt is presented. This model includes the mass transfer between the interdendritic liquid and the bulk melt which takes place additionally to the mass transfer via the boundary layer in front of the dendrite tips. Further, laboratory experiments on macrosegregation of iron-carbon alloys are described. The experiments were carried out in a unidirectional solidification device with 1,5 kg melts. During the solidification process the liquid melt was stirred by a ceramic blade stirrer with rotational speeds between 180 and 720 min ?1. The melts were supperheated above the liquidus temperature by amounts between 3 and 80 K. The solidification velocities were 2 to 6 mm/min. The experiments could satisfactorily be described by the model using an exchange factor α for the amount of additional mass transfer. The exchange factor increases with decreasing amounts of superheating and solidification velocity and with increasing stirring speed. 相似文献

A thermomechanical three-dimensional (3-D) finite element analysis of solidification is presented. The heat transfer model is based on a multidomain analysis accounting for noncoincident meshes for the cast part and the different mold components. In each subdomain, a preconditioned conjugate gradient solver is used. The mechanical analysis assumes the mold is rigid. A thermoelastic-viscoplastic rheological model is used to compute the constrained shrinkage of the part, resulting in an effective local air gap width computation. At each time increment, a weak coupling of the heat transfer and mechanical analyses is performed. Comparisons of experimental measurements and model predictions are given in the case of a hollow cylindrical aluminum alloy part, showing a good quantitative agreement. An application to an industrial aluminum casting is presented, illustrating the practical interest of thermomechanical computations in solidification analysis. 相似文献

针对低碳钢薄板坯高速连铸过程中保护渣液渣层过薄、黏结报警频发、铸坯表面纵裂纹过多等问题,在充分考虑高拉速下低碳钢凝固收缩特性的基础上,确定了保护渣润滑与传热性能的优化方向并开展了工业试验。将保护渣碱度从1.10提高到1.30,Li 2O质量分数从0.57%提高到1.06%,Na 2O质量分数从5.48%提高到8.16%,碳质量分数由7.71%降低到6.72%。对2种保护渣的流变性能和渣膜3层结构进行了深入研究,发现优化后保护渣渣膜中的液渣层比例增加,渣膜润滑系数 α增大;同时,渣膜中的结晶层比例也有一定程度的提高,渣膜热阻系数 β增大,从而使保护渣的润滑性能和控制传热能力均得到改善。从矿相分析结果看出,保护渣碱度的提高在一定程度上会促进硅灰石的析出,导致渣膜结晶率提高、热阻增大,进而起到控制传热的目的。生产实践表明,在拉速提高后,使用新型保护渣基本避免了黏结和裂纹的产生,生产效率和铸坯质量均得到显著提高。 相似文献

The present work focuses on the influence of alloy solute content, melt superheat, and metal/mold heat transfer on inverse
segregation during upward solidification of Al-Cu alloys. The experimental segregation profiles of Al 4.5 wt pct Cu, 6.2 wt
pct Cu, and 8.1 wt pct Cu alloys are compared with theoretical predictions furnished by analytical and numerical models, with
transient h
i profiles being determined in each experiment. The analytical model is based on an analytical heat-transfer model coupled
with the classical local solute redistribution equation proposed by Flemings and Nereo. The numerical model is that proposed
by Voller, with some changes introduced to take into account different thermophysical properties for the liquid and solid
phases, time variable metal/mold interface heat-transfer coefficient, and a variable space grid to assure the accuracy of
results without raising the number of nodes. It was observed that the numerical predictions generally conform with the experimental
segregation measurements and that the predicted analytical segregation, despite its simplicity, also compares favorably with
the experimental scatter except for high melt superheat. 相似文献

The ultrahigh- basicity mold flux for industrial application(binary basicity of 1. 74) was selected and solidified by an improved water- cooled copper probe. Different probe immersion times were adopted to analyze the solidification process of films. The growth speeds and closed porosities of solid films were measured. The crystallization processes by solidification and devitrification were also analyzed, respectively. The results indicate that the growth speed of the solid slag film during the initial solidification period (0-15s) is 79. 9??m/s. 2CaO??SiO2??NaF with small spherical shapes is the primary crystal which leads to devitrification. The average devitrification speed of the glassy film is 65??m/s, and the primary crystal in the outer layer of solid films is lathlike cuspidine(3CaO??2SiO2??CaF2). The growth of the lathlike cuspidine in the outer layer of films increases the closed porosity and decreases the effective thermal conductivity of solid slag films. 相似文献

The analysis is applicable to alloy solidification which proceeds horizontally to the center of a mold. The model follows
the growth of the solid-liquid zone adjacent to the chill face (the initial transient), the movement of the zone across the
mold, and the region of final solidification adjacent to the centerline (the final transient). During solidification the density
of the liquid varies across the twophase zone. Consequently, there is natural convection which is treated as flow through
a porous medium. The equations for convection are coupled with the equation of solute redistribution between the phases in
order to calculate macrosegregation after solidification is complete. Results were computed for alloys which show: (1) “inverse
segregation≓ at a cooled-surface; (2) macrosegregation resulting from solidification with the initial transient, a period
with a complete two-phase zone, and a final transient; and (3) macrosegregation when the width of the two-phase zone exceeds
the semi-width of the mold. 相似文献

To produce castings of titanium, nickel, copper, aluminum, and zinc alloys, graphite molds can be used, which makes it possible to provide a high cooling rate. No die coating and lubricant are required in this case. Computer simulation of casting into graphite molds requires knowledge of the thermal properties of the poured alloy and graphite. In addition, in order to attain adequate simulation results, a series of boundary conditions such as heat transfer coefficients should be determined. The most important ones are the interface heat transfer coefficient between the casting and the mold, the heat transfer coefficient between the mold parts, and the interface heat transfer coefficient into the environment. In this study, the interface heat transfer coefficient h between the cylindrical aluminum (99.99%) casting and the mold made of block graphite of the GMZ (low ash graphite) grade was determined. The mold was produced by milling using a CNC milling machine. The interface heat transfer coefficient was found by minimizing the error function reflecting the difference between the experimental and simulated temperatures in a mold and in a casting during pouring, solidification, and cooling of the casting. The dependences of the interface heat transfer coefficient between aluminum and graphite on the casting surface temperature and time passed from the beginning of pouring are obtained. It is established that, at temperatures of the metal surface contacting with a mold of 1000, 660, 619, and 190°C, the h is 1100, 4700, 700, and 100 W/(m 2 K), respectively; i.e., when cooling the melt from 1000°C (pouring temperature) to 660°C (aluminum melting point), the h rises from 1100 to 4700 W/(m 2 K), and after forming the metal solid skin on the mold surface and decreasing its temperature, the h decreases. In our opinion, a decrease in the interface heat transfer coefficient at casting surface temperatures lower than 660°C is associated with the air gap formation between the surfaces of the mold and the casting because of the linear shrinkage of the latter. The heat transfer coefficient between mold parts (graphite–graphite) is constant, being 1000 W/(m 2 K). The heat transfer coefficient of graphite into air is 12 W/(m 2 K) at a mold surface temperature up to 600°C. 相似文献

Control of furnace atmosphere is a key factor in the use of silica-bonded alumina shell molds for the directional solidification
of eutectic superalloys reinforced with tantalum monocarbide whiskers. The use of a furnace atmosphere which is simultaneously
oxidizing to aluminum in the eutectic alloy and reducing to silica phases in the mold results in the formation of an alumina
barrier layer in situ at the metal/mold interface and an absence of silica phases in the mold region adjacent to this barrier layer. The presence
of this microstructure permits castings of eutectics at metal temperatures up to 1750°C. 相似文献

In this paper, mold simulator trials were firstly carried out to study the phenomena of the initial shell solidification of molten steel and the heat transfer across the initial shell to the infiltrated mold/shell slag film and mold. Second, a one-dimensional inverse heat transfer problem for solidification (1DITPS) was built to determine the temperature distribution and the heat transfer behavior through the solidifying shell from the measured shell thickness. Third, the mold wall temperature field was recovered by a 2DIHCP mathematical model from the measured in-mold wall temperatures. Finally, coupled with the measured slag film thickness and the calculations of 1DITPS and 2DIHCP, the thermal resistance and the thickness of liquid slag film in the vicinity of the meniscus were evaluated. The experiment results show that: the total mold/shell thermal resistance, the mold/slag interfacial thermal resistance, the liquid film thermal resistance, and the solid film thermal resistance is 8.0 to 14.9 × 10 ?4, 2.7 to 4.8 × 10 ?4, 1.5 to 4.6 × 10 ?4, and 3.9 to 6.8 × 10 ?4 m 2 K/W, respectively. The percentage of mold/slag interfacial thermal resistance, liquid film thermal resistance, and solid film thermal resistance over the total mold/shell thermal resistance is 27.5 to 34.4, 17.2 to 34.0, and 38.5 to 48.8 pct, respectively. The ratio of radiation heat flux is around 14.1 to 51.9 pct in the liquid slag film. 相似文献

The influence of the duration of the current pulse on the solidification microstructure of resistance spot welded (RSW) samples of aluminum alloy 6016-T4 with the short-pulse technique was investigated through experiments and numerical modeling. Microstructure was analyzed in terms of morphology and size, and primary and secondary dendrite arm spacing were measured on experimental samples. A reduction in pulse width resulted in a fine, columnar-dendritic microstructure in the outer regions of the fusion zone as well as a larger equiaxed-dendritic zone in the fusion zone center. A two-dimensional, axisymmetric finite element model of the spot welding process with new methods for calculation of the solidification parameters G (thermal gradient in the solid behind the solid–liquid interface) and R (velocity of the solid–liquid interface) was used for investigation of influence of pulse time on solidification microstructure and comparison to experimental results. Morphological trends in the solidification structure showed good agreement between experiments and simulations, and the influence of the pulse duration on the solidification parameters evolved because of changing heat transfer conditions. Simulated solidification data suggest that the solidification of aluminum during RSW falls in the regime of rapid solidification. 相似文献
