Abstract

The invention relates to a method for macrosegregation numerical simulation of a casting, aiming at solving the problems of long computation time, low precision and unsuitability for predication of castings with large size or complex shapes in the traditional macrosegregation. The method comprises the following steps of: performing mesh generation on a selected dendritic crystal growth microcosmic computation field; computing dendritic crystal growth shapes during alloy solidification under different maximum nucleation densities from a microcosmic scale, and outputting a solid phase fraction-average dendritic crystal solid phase feature diameter curve; performing macro-scale mesh generation on the casting; computing a mass, momentum, energy and composition conservation equation from a macrocosmic scale; computing a solid phase fraction by using a Newton downhill method; and computing a pasty zone permeability model from a macrocosmic scale by adopting a linear interpolation technologybased on the solid phase fraction-average dendritic crystal solid phase feature diameter curve under a given nucleation density. The method disclosed by the invention is suitable for macrosegregationnumerical simulation in sand casting and metal mold casting of various sizes and complex shapes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for simulating macro-segregation in castings. Background technique [0002] The macro-segregation of castings mainly refers to the inhomogeneous chemical composition inside the casting, and the resulting inhomogeneity in the structure and performance of the casting. This inhomogeneity reduces the impact toughness and plasticity of the casting, increases the tendency of hot cracking, and sometimes makes the casting difficult to process or has a high casting rejection rate. For castings working in air or in corrosive media, macro-segregation parts are more susceptible to corrosion damage. Therefore, the computer simulation method is used to accurately predict the formation of macro-segregation in castings, and provide parameter selection and theoretical guidance for scientifically determining the casting process and finding technological measures to reduce the degree of macro-segregation. [0003] The solidification of...
