typically quite complex . to accurately model the entire physical process one needs to account for heat transfer melting and solidification air entrainment surface defect tracking and cavitation . in this three part webinar series we will simulate the entire hpdc process in flow 3d cast . we will also demonstrate the power of the new process oriented workspace that implements the necessary physical models and numerical defaults while setting up the stages of thermal die cycling filling solidification and cooling . dies are commonly used to produce thousands of castings . ensuring consistent die temperatures is essential to prevent defects throughout the casting process and also to prevent warping of die pieces that can lead to dimensional inaccuracies in the final casting product . prior to making the castings thermal die cycling simulations are carried out in order to ensure consistent die temperatures . in the first part of our webinar series we look at the wall temperatures of the die under the combined effects of die heating spray cooling air blow off and cooling channels.oct 20 2016m j y11 00am mdt2016 10 20t17 00 00z1 hourregister hpdc webinar series part

process oriented workspace that implements the necessary physical models and numerical defaults while setting up the stages of thermal die cycling filling solidification and cooling . in part ii of this series we explore the filling stage of high pressure die casting . once the necessary die temperatures are obtained the next step is to implement a properly designed shot sleeve profile to rapidly push metal into the die . in this stage of the simulation the molten metal needs to quickly fill the die to prevent early solidification . at the same time care should be taken so that the liquid metal front does not fold over itself causing air entrainment that results in internal defects or any potential surface defects formed by oxides . this is one of the more challenging simulations as it entails accurately tracking the metal front at high pressures and velocities.nov 15 2016m j y11 00am mst2016 11 15t18 00 00z1 hourregister hpdc webinar series part iii cooling and solidification high pressure die casting hpdc simulations are typically quite complex . to accurately model the entire physical process one needs to account for heat transfer melting and solidification air entrainment surface defect tracking and cavitation . in this three part webinar series we will simulate the entire hpdc process in flow 3d cast . we will also demonstrate the power of the new process oriented workspace that implements the necessary physical models and numerical defaults while setting up the stages of thermal die cycling filling solidification and cooling . in part iii of this series we will explore cooling and solidification in a high pressure die casting . the formation of internal porosity can affect the final quality of the casting part . once filling is complete a solidification simulation is performed to track the opening of voids that results in defects . in addition to predicting microporosity and macroporosity flow 3d cast is also used to investigate a detailed temperature history of the casting part to determine if additional cooling is required and whether the initial process parameters need to be modified . in the final stage of hpdc we also look at the thermally induced stresses when the casting part is being cooled after ejection from the die.dec 8 2016m j y11 00am mst2016 12 08t18 00 00z1 hourregister blog thermocapillary
