Abstract

A general lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) to simulate filling process of high pressure die casting (HPDC) is investigated. Boundary conditions are studied and the free surface model is established by combine the LBM with VOF method. The final model was substantiated by simulating filling process in HPDC in three dimensions. The simulated results from LBM and finite difference method (FDM) were compared with the experiments. The results show the former is in a better agreement with experiments. It demonstrates the efficiency and precision of this LBM model in describing flow pattern in filling process.
