[0035] Specific implementation mode 1. Combination figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for three-dimensional numerical prediction of grain structure in the process of unidirectional solidification of molten metal, comprising:

[0036] Step 1: Set the calculation domain of the assumed unidirectional solidification process of the casting, and select the subdivision step size Δx of the calculation domain in the direction of each coordinate axis in the conventional three-dimensional coordinate system CA , according to the subdivision step size Δx CA Divide grids for the calculation domain and determine the grid ID; assign state variables to each grid based on the grid ID; because it is a one-way solidification process, it is only calculated for castings.

The competitive growth of columnar crystals was studied when the grid size was 2.5 μm and 5 μm, respectively. The Euler angles of columnar crystals are (0°, 10°, 0°) and (0°, 30°, 0°), respectively. It can be seen that although the grid size has a certain influence on the final height of the grain growth, it has little effect on the angle of the grain boundary (the angle of the grain boundary is 8.2° and 7.2°, respectively). The a...

Abstract

The invention discloses a grain structure three-dimensional numerical prediction method in a molten metal one-way solidification process, and belongs to the field of metal material machining. The method aims at solving the problems that an existing simulation calculation method is large in three-dimensional numerical prediction calculation amount and does not consider the influence of solid-liquidinterface energy on grain growth when a three-dimensional cellular automaton model is adopted for simulating the molten metal solidification process and carrying out three-dimensional representationon a grain structure. The method comprises the steps of dividing grids for a computational domain and determining grid identifiers; endowing each grid with a state variable; forming a subdivision steplength confirmation file on the basis of a grid Euler angle calculation result obtained by calculation of each subdivision step length in all time step lengths; calculating to obtain the maximum subdivision step length meeting the requirement; predicting the solidification process of an actual casting, and taking the grids with the same Euler angle in each time step as the same crystal grain. According to the method, the calculation speed of numerical prediction in the actual solidification process is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for three-dimensional numerical prediction of grain structure in the process of unidirectional solidification of molten metal, and belongs to the field of metal material processing. Background technique [0002] The solidification of the molten metal occurs in the cavity, because the temperature of the mold is lower than that of the molten metal, which can effectively conduct the heat of the molten metal, thus promoting the solidification of the molten metal. The solidification of molten metal in the cavity has the characteristics of multi-directional heat dissipation, so a columnar grain structure with large grain boundary misorientation is usually formed. The columnar grain structure with large grain boundary misorientation will cause uneven distribution of mechanical properties of castings. When subjected to unidirectional load, some grain boundaries perpendicular to the load are very likely to become crack sources....
