For cast iron grades SCH 15 and SCH 20, using the computer modeling system of casting processes in the environment of the LVMFlow software package, the possibility of predicting defects of shrinkage origin when obtaining a standard cast sample that determines the grade and quality of the castings of responsible purpose poured simultaneously with it is considered

For standard tension samples of gray cast iron, the possibility of using computer modeling to study factors affecting the morphology of dendritic crystals and the volumetric arrangement of defects of shrinkage origin is shown.

Visualization of the mold filling process in the environment of the LVMFlow software complex made it possible to identify the characteristic features of filling sand-shaped grey cast iron with melt to obtain samples for testing mechanical properties.
