Flow Solver
The precise geometry description provided by Finite Element models allows ProCAST to predict the metal flow inside the mold and allows for the accurate understanding of:
- Sand Erosion and Turbulences, Oxide, Air Entrapments, Material Age
- Air Entrainments and cold shuts Flow Length, Air Pressure, Core Gasses
- Overflow positioning, Colored Flow
Fluid flow calculations are described by the full Navier Stokes equation and can be coupled with thermal and stress analysis. Specific models have been added to the flow solver for the analysis of turbulent flows, thixotropic or semi-solid materials, centrifugal castings, lost foam and core blowing.
