Abstract

Casting aluminum to obtain semi-finished products - round ingots, due to uneven cooling in the mold, leads to various defects that affect further machining. To eliminate such defects, heat treatment is carried out - homogenization annealing. One of the homogenization important stages is the cooling of the ingots after heating at a rate that does not lead to the ingot quenching. The cooling medium is air. Knowing the conditions of heat exchange between the cooling air and the high-temperature aluminum billet makes it possible to obtain the ingot’s necessary physical and mechanical properties. The article describes the developed mathematical model of conjugate heat transfer during homogenization annealing of aluminum ingot. It allows analytically calculating the temperature of the ingots depending on the cooling time. To verify the data obtained by the mathematical model, the conjugate heat transfer in the ANSYS program was simulated.
