AbstractWith casting being a complex process which involves several physical effects and interactions, a wide array of means for influencing such processes exist. Here, the liquid–solid phase change is of utmost importance, as it is a deciding factor for a part’s final properties. Especially with today’s high critical material property requirements, control of the solidification process is indispensable. For the most part, the cooling of a casting defines its solidification. What determines the cooling process is the heat balance of the system. The foundry industry has been using different approaches for influencing the heat balance for a long time. The application of different kinds of coatings with either insulating or heat transfer promoting properties as well as temperature control via cooling channels inside the mold is widely used. Progress in the field of plasma spraying of coatings and the application of heating conductor surfaces have rendered a new concept possible: The integration of heating conductors inside a coating allows for the release of heat in closest vicinity of the melt–mold interface. This paper depicts the use of numerical simulations to investigate the local application of heating conductor layers inside the mold surface coating for a permanent mold casting process and discusses concepts for influencing the heat balance that would not be possible with state-of-the-art cooling channel approaches.

Abstract The work is a part of research into the reduction of energy consumption in the production of EPSthrough the modernization of technological equipment used. This paper presents the results of research and analysis of heat transfer process between the water vapor that was provided to machine, the mold, the product and the environment. The paper shows the calculation of the heat balance of the production cycle for two types of mold: standard and modernized. The performance tests used an infrared imaging camera. The results were used to develop a computer image analysis and statistical analysis. This paper presents the main stages of the production process and the construction of technological equipment used, changing the mold surface temperature field during the production cycle and the structure of the heat balance for the mold and its instrumentation. It has been shown that the modernization of construction of technological equipment has reduced the temperature field and as a consequence of decreased of demand for process steam production cycle.

Horizontal centrifugal casting is widely used for production of water pipes, rolls and so on. Advantage of this process is to press molten metal against the permanent mold due to centrifugal force. Thanks to this, one can obtain fine structure and sound castings1). On the other hand, macroscopic segregation on tangential direction sometimes forms. The formation mechanism of macroscopic segregation has not well understood. This is because the solidification process itself is still uncertain since it is very complex2-4). Thus, in order to understand the solidification process in horizontal centrifugal casting an in-situ observation has been made in this study. Transparent organic substance has been used to simulate the metal solidification.

In order to understand the solidification behavior in the semi-continuous casting process of 7B50 aluminum alloy, a thermo-mechanical model for the analysis of 7B50 aluminum alloy solidification process is presented, this model considering liquid-solid phase-change effects for the solidification alloy. The thermal contact conductance between the mould wall and the ingot, the convective heat transfer coefficient are taken into account in the model. The distribution of temperature and stress in the process of semi-continuous casting of 7B50aluminum alloy are analyzed in three-dimensional finite element methods based on the above models. The variation of casting speed to influence the temperature and stress of the ingot in the process of semi-continuous casting is studied.

The article considers the results of research conducted during electric contact heating of rye-wheat dough pieces. It is established that the electrical conductivity of the crumb dough does not depend on the total humidity of the material, but mainly on the amount of free moisture. Using the current and temperature graphs, you can imagine how free moisture changes during the baking process and the influence of the thermophysical and colloidal process on the change in the value of free moisture. Experimentally determined the amount of heat that is spent on baking 1 kg of bread. The accuracy of the theoretical calculation of this parameter in the heat balance of the baking chamber is confirmed.

Accidents of icing on catenary have great impacts on normal operation of trains. An on-line anti-icing technology used static var generator (SVG) for catenary was proposed, which can prevent icing formation without interrupting trains normal operation. The heat balance equations for catenary were solved, whose results were compared with data provided by TB/T 3111 and testing show the equation was correct. The simulation model based on Matlab was bulit , whose results and analysis show the correctness of the method.

Complex open gas turbine cycles are analyzed by applying the heat balance method presented in Part I of this paper. Reheating, intercooling, regeneration, steam injection, and steam cooling are evaluated graphically to give a visual perspective of what takes place in terms of the overall heat balance when such complexities are introduced to the cycle. An example of a viable, new, intercooled regenerative cycle is given. A second example of a prototype reheat gas turbine is also included. The overall approach using the heat balance method can be applied to various cogeneration configurations when considering the more complex cycles of the future.

The effect of boiling on the rate of heat extraction by cooling channels employed in pressure die casting dies is investigated. The cooling effect of the channels is simulated using a model that accounts for subcooled nucleate boiling and transitional film boiling as well as forced convection. The boiling model provides a continuous relationship between the rate of heat transfer and temperature, and can be applied to surfaces where forced convection, subcooled nucleate boiling and transitional film boiling are taking place in close proximity. The effects of physical parameters such as flow velocity, degree of subcooling, system pressure and bulk temperature are taken into account. Experimental results are obtained using a rig that simulates the pressure die casting process. The results are compared with the model predictions and are found to show good agreement. Instrumented field tests, on an industrial die casting machine, are also reported. These tests show the beneficial effects of boiling heat transfer in the pressure die casting process, including a 75 per cent increase in the production rate for the test component.
