低压铸造GIS用壳体凝固仿真分析与工艺优化
摘要
通过ProCAST软件对一种GIS用壳体的原铸造工艺进行充型与凝固仿真分析
研究了该零件出现的铸造缺陷的原因
并进行了工艺优化。结果表明
大法兰面采用厚25mm的随型冷铁
其工艺的凝固过程出现孤立液相区
导致铸件的缩孔缺陷;优化工艺后
大法兰面采用厚15mm的冷铁
让开内浇道位置且冷铁内圆周与筒壁保持10mm的距离
其凝固过程为顺序凝固
使缩孔消除。对模拟结果进行了生产验证
模拟结果符合生产实际。
Abstract
With the help of ProCAST software
solidification simulation of the initial casting process of the housing for GIS was conducted to understand origination of defects occurred.Then the initial casting process was optimized with the help of computer simulation technology.The results demonstrate that isolated liquid region occurrs in the solidification process of the large flange surface with 25 mm thickness of cold iron
resulting in shrinkage defects.After process optimization
through setting 15 mm thick cold iron on the large flange surface and avoiding the gate locations as well as the inner circumference of chill keeping a distance of 10 mm with the cylinder wall
the solidification process can meet the sequential solidification
so shrinkage defects are eliminated.The simulation results were validated
and the simulation results were well agreement with the actual production ones.
