Predicting defects and material quality in castings by means of computational determination of flow length values

“…The flow length values are rather meant to characterise the transient filling process with a single distribution of a quantity, facilitating direct comparison with different designs and evaluation of fill patterns, like it has been demonstrated in Ref. 10. Based on the flow length, it is, for example, possible to choose that gating layout resulting in the lowest maximum values and the appropriate distribution for a given casting.…”
