Al-Si alloys were solidified in a rotating cylindrical mold by a vertical centrifugal casting process. Under a certain casting condition, there are four distinct zones such as the chill zone, the primary fine columnar zone, the equiaxed zone, and the secondary coarse columnar zone from the mold wall. The columnar-equiaxed transition (CET) and the equiaxed-columnar transition (ECT) were measured as functions of solute content, flow rate (mold velocity), pouring temperature and mold temperature. Within the critical value of solute content, as the flow rate increases, the columnar-equiaxed transition were found, but not the equiaxed-columnar transition. The aspect ratio of the primary columnar zone was more affected by the solute content than the flow rate. However the aspect ratio of the equiaxed zone was more affected by the flow rate than the solute content. The aspect ratio of the secondary columnar zone was affected by both the flow rate and the solute content.

본 연구에서는 사출성형 충전공정 중 금형의 변형을 예측하기 위하여 비뉴턴 유동, 열전달, 구조해석이 함께 고려된 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. 정밀 사출성형 금형을 설계/제작하기 위해서는 충전공정 중에 발생하는 금형의 변형을 정확하게 예측하는 것이 중요하다. 이와 같은 금형의 국부적인 변형은 다양한 요인에 의해 발생할 수 있으나, 용융된 고분자 수지의 유동에 의한 압력이 가장 큰 원인 중의 하나로 여겨지고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 2 차원 축대칭 형상의 단순 원형 디스크 제품의 금형을 모델링하고 이에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 이를 바탕으로 금형 내부의 고분자 수지의 유동 특성과 금형 변형량, 온도 분포에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 다구치 방법을 기반으로 한 실험계획법을 도입하여 유동 속도, 금형 온도, 고분자 수지의 온도가 금형 변형에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다.

Development of surface heating technology using hot jet impingement onto mold inner surface for improvement of pattern transcription. This study is focused on how to control the parameters related to hot jet impingement. The mass flow rate, the jet temperature and the duration of the impingement are major parameters. The nozzle design and other geometric configurations also affect the heat transfer to the surface. In terms of heat transfer analysis, the most important number is the heat transfer coefficient, which is influenced by the mass flow rate, nozzle design, distance between the nozzle tip and the surface. In summary, several parametric studies using the developed model are conducted to investigate the effects of mass flow rate, jet temperature and Heating Time in Surface heating technology using hot jet impingement onto mold.

In this paper, the temperature characteristics of mold transformer for the distribution power system have been analyzed by using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). The model has been modeled by coil, cores, insulating materials and frames about 3MVA grade mold transformer and analyzed the temperature distribution of the structure with a heat fluid. The fluid, which is incompressible ideal gas, is analyzed as a turbulent flow phenomenon on the assumption that it is natural cooling of transformer cooling system. Through this study, by examining the temperature distribution and hot-spot of the structure field of the mold transformer, cooling design and temperature distribution information, which are demanded for designing are estimated.

A numerical model based on the SOLA-VOF method, which can calculate the transient free-surface configuration of the melt, has been developed in order to analyze melt flow in the investment mold. The computational results were compared with experimental results obtained from pure aluminum investment casting. Heat transfer analysis, with and without consideration of melt flow effect has been performed. It can be concluded that analysis of melt flow in the investment mold, provides the optimum conditions for gating design. It also enables more precise solidification simulation, since heat loss, while filling the thin and complex investment mold, plays an important role in determining the solidification sequence.

The rapid thermal response (RTR) molding is a novel process developed to raise the temperature of mold surface rapidly to the polymer melt temperature prior to the injection stage and then cool rapidly to the ejection temperature. The resulting filling process is achieved inside a hot mold cavity by prohibiting formation of frozen layer so as to enable thin wall injection molding without filing difficulty. The present work covers flow simulation of thin wall injection molding using the RTR molding process. In order to take into account the effects of thermal boundary conditions of the RTR mold, coupled analysis with transient heat transfer simulation is suggested and compared with conventional isothermal analysis. The proposed coupled simulation approach based on solid elements provides reliable thin wall flow estimation fur both the conventional molding and the RTR molding processes

This paper investigates the behavior of bubbles trapped in the in-mold coating (IMC) process. Silicon oil with different viscosity, 100, 150, 200, 300 and 400cps, was selected instead of the coating materials. To observe the flow front inside, a special mold was designed, where front plate was made of transparent material (acrylate). The overall size of front plate was $150mm{\times}120mm$. Mold gate location can be changed from up to down. Four heaters were used to investigate the effectiveness of temperature. The results show that silicon viscosity, mold gate location and mold temperature play an important role on the appearance of bubbles trapped in IMC process.
