Abstract
The process of casting in foundry is complex and involves large process to get the required part, and such process needs simulation before manufacturing. Casting simulation may save material and gives optimal process of casting in foundry. The defect minimization or prevention is challenging and plays significantly in enhancing the productivity of the foundry. The aim of the present study is to compute hot spots and hot tearing in Al–Cu cast alloy. The originating points of the feed paths represent the hot spots that lead to a shrinkage defect. Some studies have been carried out on hot tear. It was observed that the location of hot tear is at inter-junction of mold cavity to the gate. The developed model is used as bench mark to predict the location of hot spot and hot tear of Al–Cu cast alloy by green sand casting method with casting simulation software.
