Abstract:Chill vent has a zigzag venting path which allows residual air or gases to exhaust out very quickly from the die cavity. However molten metal sometimes comes out through the gas venting surfaces causing flash. Effect of designing factors of chill vent and processing variables in high pressure die casting on the performance of chill vent was investigated through a series of calculations by using a commercial code. The most influential factor was the thickness of chill vent, followed by inlet velocity, vent widt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
