Resumo
METAL CASTING CAN BE ACCOMPANIED BY THE OCCURRENCE OF DEFECTS SUCH AS MICRO- AND MACRO-POROSITY, ENTRAPPED GAS BUBBLES, CONTRACTION CAVITIES, HOT CRACKING, OXIDE BIOFILMS AND TURBULENT FLOW OF LIQUID METAL, DEFECTS INHERENT TO THIS MANUFACTURING PROCESS. HOWEVER, THERE ARE FINITE ELEMENT SOFTWARES THAT CAN PREDICT THESE DEFECTS IN THE DESIGN STAGE OF CAST PARTS TO HELP AVOID THEM. THE AIM OF THIS PAPER IS TO COMPARE RESULTS OBTAINED BY TWO DIFFERENT FINITE ELEMENT SOFTWARES – PROCAST (ESI GROUP) AND INSPIRE CAST (ALTAIR) – WITH EACH OTHER AND WITH EXPERIMENTAL A356 ALUMINUM CASTING RESULTS WITH FOCUS ON THE MAIN CASTING DEFECTS USING A STANDARDIZED PERMANENT MOLD. BOTH SOFTWARES ARE EXTENSIVELY USED IN THE INDUSTRY WITH THE PURPOSE OF PRODUCING DEFECT-FREE CAST PARTS. RESULTS INDICATE THAT BOTH SOFTWARES PROVIDE SIMILAR RESULTS WITH RESPECT TO CASTING DEFECTS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATIONS, BUT SOLIDIFICATION TIME VARIED CONSIDERABLY, ESPECIALLY WHEN PROCAST WAS USED.
Casting; A356 aluminum alloy; Numerical simulation; Inspire Cast software, ProCast software.
