To improve the quality of the product and the cost efficiency, the joining of A356 alloy to an Al-18wt%Si alloys has been performed by centrifugal casting. The influence of the mold preheating temperature, the pouring temperature and the rotational velocity of the mold on the microstructures of the shell in the centrifugal casting was investigated using the experimental and simulation methods. In the present study, the cellular automaton (CA) technique and the finite volume method (FVM) were adopted to simulate the evolution of the macro structures and to calculate the temperature profiles, respectively. The evolution of the microstructures was also simulated using a modified cellular automaton (MCA) model. The optimal rotational speed of the mold for obtaining the sound shape of the shell was estimated experimentally to be over 1200 rpm. For the uniform microstructure, the outer shell needs to be cast with higher preheated mold temperature and lower pouring temperature, and the melt was poured at lower temperature in the inner shell. In order to obtain the sound shape of the joining, the different materials were poured simultaneously.

In order to investigate the relationship between the thermal characteristics of the various molds as green sand mold, dry sand mold, $CO_2$ mold and shell mold, and the solidification characteristics of molten metal, the thermal analysis of rarious molds and melt were performed. The structure of Al-Castings was a/so observed. Results obtained in this experiment were as follows : 1) The heating rate of the molds was increased in the order of green sand mold, $CO_2$ mold, dry sand mold and shell mold, On the other hand the solidification time of the melts was shortened in the order of dry sand mold castings, $CO_2$ mold castings, green sand mold castings and shell mold castings. 2) The arrest temperature period in the heating curve of the green sand mold was resulted from the eraporation of moisture contained in mold, which was transfered to the outer side of the mold. 3) The temperature fluctuation of the melt in the shell mold was considered to be resulted from the combution heat of resin contained in the mold. 4) The amounts of heat absorption of the molds were increased in the order of dry sand mold, $CO_2$ mold, green sand mold and shell mold. 5) The higher the solidification rate was, the longer was its shrinkage pipe and the finer its grain size.

In this paper, The bulging behavior of the solidified shell in continuously cast slabs have been numerically analyzed using three-dimensional elasto-plastic and creep finite element method Three-dimensional model has been applied in order to investigate the effect of the narrow face shell on restraining the bulging deflection. Solidification analysis are carried out by two-dimensional finite difference method. In this way, strains occurring at the solidification front near the narrow face of the slab, as well as those occurring in the board face have been computed. The adequacy of the model has been checked against the experimental results. In addition, the effect of the slab width and casting speed on the bulging are discussed.

Study was peformed to develop the‘environmental double pile’for the remediation of low-permeable contaminated soil. This technique is similar in function to‘sand drain pile’But this applies recyclable oyster shell treated as waste materials to a drain material and the pile is consisted of two layers. Inner metal pile is located in center and oyster shells are filled around it. By this technology, contaminated ground water is pumped out through the oyster shell and purified by drainage, adsorption, and reaction processes. Afterwards, the grout material is injected through the inner pile for the effect of the solidification / stabilization. As a result, the concept of this technique is a development of one-step process technology. Through the test, a consolidation characteristic by radial drain is going to be evaluated and the optimum standard of this technology will be calculated.

In early solidification during the continuous casting of steel slabs, the formation of oscillation marks on the surface of slabs was mainly affected by carbon contents and casting conditions. The control of oscillation mark is required for the HCR(Hot Charged Rolling) process because the deep oscillation marks seriously deteriorate the surface qualities of steel slabs. The metallographic study has revealed that the oscillation mark can be classified principally according to the presence or absence of a small 'subsurface hook' and the depth of the oscillation marks in the subsurface structure at the basis of individual oscillation marks. The subsurface hook of oscillation marks was either straight or curved. When the amount of overflow was small and the subsurface hook was formed in the top of oscillation marks, the subsurface hook was straight and the oscillation mark was shallow. The oscillation marks without subsurface hook have small early solidification shell and were formed wide. The actual negative strip time$(t_N)$ was changed by the effect of meniscus level fluctuation Therefore irregular early solidification shell and oscillation mark were formed.

This experimental study was carried out to investigate the solidification characteristics of polystyrene added styronaphthalene pattern materials using various castability test methods. The styronaphthalene showed an excellent filling capacity and shaping behavior having about 0.2 mm meniscus radius. The shell thickness of styronaphthalene showing smooth wall at the solid/liquid interface increased with the increasing of polystyrene addition. The solidification microstructure of styronaphthalene showed a typical thin ribbon reinforced composite structure, which has fibrous amorphous skeleton of polystyrene and crystalline naphthalene. From the results of this study, it was found that the polystyrene added styronaphthalene showed a precision shaping behavior as disposable pattern material under the atmospheric condition.

The coupled turbulent flow and solidification is considered in a typical slab continuous easting process using commercial program FIDAP. Standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model is modified to decay turbulent viscosity in the mushy zone and laminar viscosity is set to a sufficiently large value at the solid region. This coupled turbulent flow and solidification model also contains thermal contact resistance due to the mold powder and air gap between the strand and mold using an effective thermal conductivity. From the computed flow pattern, the trajectory of inclusion particles was calculated. The comparison between the predicted and experimental solidified shell thickness shows a good agreement.

A mathematical model has been developed for predicting kinematic, thermal, and solidification histories of atomized droplets during flight. Liquid droplet convective cooling, recalescence, equilibrium-state solidification, and solid-phase cooling were taken into account in the analysis of the solidification process. The spherical shell model was adopted where the heterogeneous nucleation is initiated from the whole surface of a droplet. The growth rate of the solid-liquid interface was determined from the theory of crystal growth kinetics with undercooling caused by the rapid solidification. The solid fraction after recalescence was obtained by using the integral method. The thermal responses of atomized droplets to gas velocity, particle size variation, and degree of undercooling were investigated through the parametric studies. It is possible to evaluate the solid fraction of the droplet according to flight distance and time in terms of a dimensionless parameter derived from the overall energy balance of the system. It is also found that the solid fraction at the end of recalescence is not dependent on the droplet size and nozzle exit velocity but on the degree of subcooling.

A three-dimensional coupled turbulent fluid flow and solidification process were analyzed in a continuous casting process of a steel slab with Electromagnetic Brake(EMBR). A revised low-Reynolds number $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model was used to consider the turbulent effects. The enthalpy-porosity relation was employed to suppress the velocity within a mushy region. The electromagnetic field was described by Maxwell equations. Tile application of EMBR to the mold region results in the decrease of the transfer of superheat to the narrow face, the increase of temperature in free surface region and most liquid of submold region, and the higher temperature gradient near the solidifying shell. The increasing magnetic flux density effects mainly to the surface temperature of the solidifying shell of narrow face, hardly to the one of wide face. It is seen that in the presence of EMBR a thicker solidifying shell is obtained at the narrow face of the slab.

쉘 중자 공법은 성형성, 탈사성에 있어서는 뛰어난 프로세스이나, 고온의 알루미늄 용탕이 중자와 접촉할 때 수지의 열분해에 의한 가스발생이 필연적이며, 이의 배출이 원활하지 못할 때에는 주물내부에 기공 등으로 남게 되어 주조품의 내기밀성에 직접 영 향을 미친다. 쉘 중자 이용 시 가스발생거동에 대해서는 일본에서 약간의 연구가 있었으나, 직접적인 예측 결과는 발표되지 않았고, 특 히 가스발생에 대한 모델링이 성립되어 있지 않아 이의 연구는 아주 미미한 상태이다. 개발되는 코어에 대한 온도-가스량과의 관 계를 고려한 발생 가스량 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 개발하고, 이를 이용하여 실린더 헤드 제품의 코어 금형 설계 및 저압주조 시 금속 용탕의 유동 및 응고 거동을 해석하고 주조결함 발생을 예측하여 결함발생을 최소화 하는 주조방안 도출하고자 한다.
