EFFECT OF THE INCLINED COOLING PLATE CHARACTERISTICS ON THE THIXOTROPIC MICROSTRUCTURE OF A356.0 ALUMINUM ALLOY
In the present work microstructural evolution of A356 Aluminum alloy using an inclined cooling plate casting process for thixoforming feedstock production is investigated. The resultant microstructure was evaluated and compared with those of the same alloy produced by the conventional casting process, i.e. directly cast in the same mold without using an inclined cooling plate. It was found that...
متن کاملOptimization and utilization of semisolid casting process for semisolid welding of Al-6061 alloy
Semisolid processing is one of the modern routes in sound and near net shape parts production. Preparation of semisolid slurry using a cooling slope is increasingly becoming popular, primarily because of its simplicity in design and ease of control of the process. In this research, the microstructures of Al6061 semisolid alloy cast via a miniature cooling slope were investigated. The propertie...
متن کاملEffect of Aging Condition on Semisolid Cast 2024 Aluminum Alloy
2024 Aluminum alloy was squeezed cast by the Gas Induced Semi Solid (GISS) process. Effect of artificial aging on microstructure and mechanical properties of this alloy was studied in the present work. The solutionized specimens were aged hardened at temperatures of 175°C, 200°C, and 225°C under various time durations. The highest hardness of about 77.7 HRE was attained from specimen aged at th...
متن کاملThe Use of Water Cooling during the Continuous Casting of Steel and Aluminum Alloys
In both continuous casting of steel slabs and direct chill (DC) casting of aluminum alloy ingots, water is used to cool the mold in the initial stages of solidification, and then below the mold, where it is in direct contact with the newly solidified surface of the metal. Water cooling affects the product quality by (1) controlling the heat removal rate that creates and cools the solid shell an...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Role Water-cooling Plays during Continuous Casting of Steel and Aluminum Alloys
Water-cooling plays a major role in extracting heat from both the mold and solidifying metal during the continuous casting of steel and aluminum alloys and is characterized by complex boiling phenomena. Heat extraction rates during water-cooling, which have strong dependence on the metal surface temperature, can rapidly change with time as the strand cools down. Consequently, uncontrolled cooli...
