On the Use of Conformal Cooling in High-Pressure Die-Casting and Semisolid Casting [PDF]
Today, tool life in high pressure die casting (HPDC) is of growing interest. A common agreement is that die life is primarily decided by the thermal load and temperature gradients in the die materials.

Effect of Cooling Rates on the Microstructure and Mechanical Property of La Modified Al7SiMg Alloys Processed by Gravity Die Casting and Semi-Solid Die Casting [PDF]
Rare earth (RE) additions are capable of refining the α-Al phase as well as modifying the eutectic Si particles of alloys. The cooling rate in casting process should be carefully concerned when the Al-Si alloys are refined and modified by adding RE ...

Evaluation of Cooling Performance of an Additive Manufactured Gravity Die Casting Mold with Conformal Cooling Channel [PDF]
: A cooling channel with an optimized design provides not only high throughput with gravity die casting, but also guarantees product quality. A conformal cooling channel (CC) whose structure follows the shapes or surfaces of the mold cavity has attracted

Effects of Cooling Rate and Solid Fraction on α-Al Phase Evolution in Rheo-Die Casting: Phase-Field Simulation and Experimental Investigation. [PDF]
This study aims to bridge the critical knowledge gap in understanding the dynamic microstructural evolution during high-solid-fraction semi-solid rheo-die casting process, including slurry preparation (0.1–0.3 K/s) and rheo-die casting (10–150 K/s).
