摘要
The variation of casting hot spot with proceeding of solidification andcomponents of casting-mold system is studied by the technique of numerical simulation ofsolidification. The result shows that the thickest part of casting is not exactly the last part ofsolidification in the casting, while the last part of solidification is not exactly casting hot spotat the early stage of solidification. The location, size, shape and number of casting hot spotchange with geomitric, physical and technological factors of the casting-mold system such asthickness of the casting secondary wall and with the passage of time in the course of thesolidification. The former is known as the systematic property of hot spot and the latter, dynamicproperty. Only when the properties of hot spot are grasped completely and accurately, can it be fedmore effectively. By doing so, not only sound castings can be obtained, but also riser efficiencycan be improved.
