Prediction of hot tears in DC-cast aluminium ingots
Abstract
The present work aims to investigate hot tearing in a two-dimensional thermo-mechanical finite element (FE) model of aluminium DC ingot casting. Using the RDG criterion, the depression pressure within the mush of an AAS182 ingot has been calculated. For this work, the depression pressure was calculated directly over the solidification distance, without any transformation to temperature. Thus, variation in parameters such as the evolution of …
