Abstract

The article provides information on existing modeling program systems, their brief description and ability of practical application. A comparative analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of such simulation systems, which allowed in the framework of the tasks to reduce the number of systems under study to two were carried out. The calculation of the sprinkling system for casting from the alloy 20X5ML of the compressor wheel based on its model unit is performed, while using the LVMflow modeling program, its most effective version of such a system was found. It is designed for the yield of suitable, the materials are selected to obtain the required chemical composition of the alloy, based on the condition that the smelting will be made on return and raw materials, the costs of their acquisition are determined. Further, this calculation option was used as the original for modeling in the Procast program, which made it possible to obtain more higher prime yield with suitable costs for raw melting stock.
