Nozzle ring is an important part of turbocharger which is applied to today's most diesel engines. Turbo charger nozzle ring is difficult to process and takes a high cost and a long time relatively. For this reason, it is largely produced by using a precision casting. Investment method, the representative technology of precision casting, has excellent dimensional accuracy and can produce complex shapes relatively easily. However, it is difficult to avoid the casting defects such as shrinkage cavity and short shot. This study is to predict the casting defects which could be occurred during the investment method by use of finite element analysis software and to design the process and mold of the marine turbocharger nozzle ring.
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.
