Abstract
ABSTRACT Dendrite coherency or dendrite impingement is an important factor for determining solidification microstructure and casting defects of alloys. In this research, the effect of various cooling rates and Al-5Ti-1B grain refiner contents on the dendrite coherency point (DCP) characteristics of an Al-Si-Mg alloy designated as A357 has been studied. The results showed that both mentioned parameters have a significant influence on DCP of this alloy. Increasing the cooling rate from 0.15 to 1.0 °C/s and the grain refiner content from 0.0 to 3 wt. % increased the solid fraction in where dendrite coherency occurs. Moreover, enhancement of the cooling rate and grain refiner could increase the difference between the liquidus and coherency temperatures (TN–TDCP), about 27 and 26 °C, respectively. The dendrite coherency time decreased by increasing the cooling rate and increased by increasing the grain refiner content.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Cast Metals Research is devoted to the dissemination of peer reviewed information on the science and engineering of cast metals, solidification and casting processes. Assured production of high integrity castings requires an integrated approach that optimises casting, mould and gating design; mould materials and binders; alloy composition and microstructure; metal melting, modification and handling; dimensional control; and finishing and post-treatment of the casting. The Journal reports advances in both the fundamental science and materials and production engineering contributing to the successful manufacture of fit for purpose castings.
