Cooling and Solidification topics include: Solidification rate and mechanism, large casting solidification in insulating mould, solidification with predominant interface resistance and constant surface temperature, riser placement and residual stress. Casting solidification is the process of transforming a liquid phase into a solid phase. The casting industry uses this process to transform certain materials from a liquid state to a solid state.

Casting solidification is the process of transforming a liquid phase into a solid phase. The casting industry uses this process to transform certain materials from a liquid state to a solid state. In the continuous casting process, liquid metal is poured into a mold with a uniform cross section. The outside of the mold is cooled, and the metal solidifies as it flows through. When the metal leaves the mold, it is completely solidified on the outside, but still liquid inside. During this metallurgical process, it induces casting defects like shrinkage, porosity and hot tears. The solidification time of a casting is determined by the casting's geometry, material, and process. A cooling system in a die casting mold is a network of channels or passages designed to remove heat from the mold during the die casting process. Show less
