Calibrating your processes
From integrated continuous casting simulation...
From ladle to cutting the cast product, through the primary and secondary cooling stages, you can: • Optimize ingot mold taper/conicity ef ciency,
• Predict the quality of the solid shell,
• Check bulging and avoid breakouts...
... thanks to a unique module that is dedicated to studying complex phenomena like the interaction between the turbulent liquid metal and solid shell shrinkage.
Simulating the start of the continuous
slab casting process ( lling the cavity under turbulence)
Illustrating liquid metal paths and checking mold temperatures using cooling channels during the process
Finely model the actual machine to realistically predict Different spray models are available for the the quality of the product using the module dedicated consideration of the secondary cooling including
to building the virtual casting machine.
... To foundry processes
THERCAST® allows the representation of the complete multi-phase metal behavior during the casting process, as shown on the right:
• Liquid state lling under turbulence
• Solidifying and primary shrinkage allowing for the mushy zone
• Primary and secondary shrinkage after complete solidi cation.
