Shrinkage of the Solidification

lenken · December 10, 2013, 11:20

Hi, may I know how to analyze the shrinkage of the solidification process of cast iron? I could just see the shrinkage on 'simulate tab' volume graph, but I could not see on the display tab.

What should I do to see the shrinkage on display? or what settings must be made on 'Anaylze Tab'?

I am using Flow 3D 9.4.1.

Thank you very much first for your time and attention.

Best regards
Ken

Dear Ken

I use Flow-3D CAST and I haven't any problem like this yet, but if you simulate casting process we can contact with each other and transfer the information and problems.

Hi Mr Sharifabad,

I am using Flow 3D cast for my thesis. I am using it to símulate the casting process of low carbon steel.

I am currently analyzing the shrinkage of the solidification process. I am able to analyze from the graph on 'Simulate Tab'. But what I need is to have 3D display of the shrinkage for my presentation. I have tried a lot of times, but no idea on how to create a 3D display like that.

Thank you for your reply!

Best regards
Ken

Hi Mr Sharifabad,

Or perhaps the percentage of shrinkage is small so it is inconspicous on display? Could it be?
