Abstract:

        We employed the software, Anycasting, to simulate filling and solidification for an intake pipe metallic gravity cast. We also compared the influences of singleside and doubleside bottom pouring processing schemes. Results show that the filling state of singleside bottom pouring scheme is more optimal. Its feeding channel is clear,the shrinkage and the dispersed shrinkage are basically eliminated.

Key words: intake pipe, casting, filling, solidification, computer simulation
