Original abstract
An original application of ANSYS simulated the forming of the temperature field of a massive casting during the application various methods of its cooling. The numerical model managed to optimize more than one method of cooling but, in addition to that, provided serious results for the successive model of structural and chemical heterogeneity, and so it also contributes to influencing the pouring structure. The file containing the acquired results from both models, as well as from their organic unification, brings new and, simultaneously, remarkable findings of causal relationships between the structural and chemical heterogeneity (i.e. between the sizes of the spheroids of graphite, the cells, density of the spheroids of graphite, etc.) and the local solidification time in any point of the casting. The determined relations therefore enable the prediction of the face density of the spheroids of graphite in dependence on the local solidification time.
