On the Use of Conformal Cooling in High-Pressure Die-Casting and Semisolid Casting

Technologies, 2021
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

Metals, 2020
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 ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigations into Heat Transfer Using a Jet Cooler in High-Pressure Die Casting

Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing, 2023
During high-pressure die casting, a significant amount of heat is dissipated via the liquid-cooled channels in the die. The jet cooler, also known as the die insert or bubbler, is one of the most commonly used cooling methods. Nowadays, foundries casting
