The horizontal continuous casting method with the heated mold was applied to study the solidification structures of the pure Al and Al-0.5wt%Si and Al-1.0wt%Si alloy rods. The results could be summarized as follows: 1. The S/L interface structures of pure Al represented the hexagonal cells at the casting speed of 590 and 350mm/min, respectively. However, the hexagonal cells became irregular as the casting speed and(or) Si amount increased. 2. The striation increased as the Si amount and casting speed increased and was found to result from the occurrence of growth twin crystals by XRD analysis. 3. The striation did not affect the mechanical and electrical property of the drawn wire from the casted rod. This means the striation is not a serious defect which has to consider in the production of micro-sized fine wire in the drawing process.

This study examined the casting analysis of fuel pressure regulator of LPI vehicles. We aims to predict all the phenomenon accompanied by flow and solidification in die casting, and maximize productivity and quality through optimal casting design. As a result of comparing Types A and B of casting design, it was found that the number of overflow affected flow, flowspeed and solidification temperature. And there was a minute difference between solidification temperatures at thick section of the spare parts. Solidification began at temperatures of $624^{\circ}C{\sim}630^{\circ}C$ but after the casting was completed, temperatures at the center of the parts were $600^{\circ}C{\sim}614^{\circ}C$ Temperature of molten metal showed optimal flow at temperature of $680^{\circ}C$. It began to solidity around at $650^{\circ}C$ and to be cooled between $580^{\circ}C{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ in high speed. When the process was analysed through a computer simulation, it was found that hardness of regulators manufactured through Type B of overflow was above $H_R60$.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the microstructure and tensile strength of $SiC_p$/Al alloy composites fabricated by die casting method. Die casting was performed using the preheated mold at the pouring temperature range of $620{\sim}750^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of $1,039 kgf/cm^2$. The low speed and a following high injection speed were 0.4 and 2.1 m/s, respectively. The microstructure of $SiC_p$/Al alloy composites fabricated by die casting method was found to be finer than that of composites fabricated by gravity casting. Also, SiC particulates were homogeneously distributed in refined Al matrix due to rapid solidification. The tensile strength of $SiC_p$/Al alloy composites fabricated by die casting method was found to be varied with cast temperature. The maximun tensile strength of $SiC_p$(10 vol.% and 20 vol.%)/Al alloy composites showed 380 MPa at the cast temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ and 363 MPa at the cast temperature of $700^{\circ}C$, respectively.

High speed casting technology is an attractive method to increase the productivity of continuous casting. However, high speed casting causes flow instability of molten steel in a mold. In this study, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) has been performed to identify the characteristics of mold flow for various shapes of submerged entry nozzles. The LES code has been newly developed to efficiently compute the two-phase flow by using the Fractional Step Method (FSM) combined with the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method. The Immersed Boundary Method was used to implement the shape of the submerged entry nozzle. Three cases of discharge angle of the submerged entry nozzle were computed and compared. The current results shed light on improving shape design of a submerged entry nozzle.
