Simulation of semisolid diecasting process of four-way valve of HPb59-1 alloy for air-conditioner
There exist many problems in producing four-way valve of HPb59-1 alloy for an air-conditioner by traditional solid state hot forging, i.e. larger forming loads, lower material utilization, larger subsequent machining allowance and nonuniform microstructure. For this reason, based on the orthogonal test, the semisolid diecasting process of a certain type of four-way valve was simulated with FLOW-3D. The simulation results show that the optimized process parameters are: the pouring temperature of 897.25 ℃, the shot velocity of 2.0 m/s and the preheated die temperature of 260 ℃. The simulation results demonstrate that the cavity can be filled smoothly and completely, the surface defects are small, the temperature field and the pressure field are tmiform, and the casting quality is satisfactory. The effectiveness and availability of applying this technology are well verified by the numerical simulation.
