Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cast aluminum alloy and heat treatment, in particular to a cast aluminum-silicon alloy for an engine cylinder head and a heat treatment process. Background technique [0002] Among aluminum alloys, aluminum-silicon alloys have excellent casting properties (such as low fluidity, good air tightness, small shrinkage, and low tendency to thermal cracking), good specific strength, corrosion resistance, weldability, and low expansion. It has been widely used due to its advantages. In particular, some large and complex aluminum castings are made of aluminum-silicon alloys, such as engine blocks, cylinder heads, and gearbox housings. The engine cylinder head is a typical complex aluminum casting, which integrates complex oil, water and gas structural units in its structure. Moreover, the engine cylinder head, piston, and cylinder together form the combustion chamber of the engine, and the working conditions are...
