Use of ProCAST Software to Model Casting Systems for the Centrifugal Casting of GTE Blades Made of Intermetallic Alloys

  • Published:
Metallurgist Aims and scope

This article examines aspects of the design of ceramic molds for casting parts made of intermetallic alloys. Computer modeling is used to analyze the filling of existing designs of gating systems (GS) with metal. New variants are proposed for GS designs that make it possible to optimize the mold-filling process and reduce the risk of its fracture.
