Aluminum and its alloy castings are used more and more widely, and it is particularly important to remove impurities in the alloy. According to the principle of bubble floatation for degassing aluminum melt, a new porous nozzle with controllable pores was developed, and a hydraulic simulation experimental device was studied with the nozzle. The effects of the particle size ratio of the coarse sand to fine sand and volume fraction of fine sand on the porosity of the porous nozzle were studied by orthogonal experiment, and permeability and compressive strength of the porous nozzle were used as test indicators to determine the optimal parameters of preparation for the porous nozzle. The optimal parameters are fine sand of 100 mesh, and fine sand of 50 wt.%, binder of 17.5 wt.%, pore-forming agent of 6 wt.%, and pressure of making sample of 5 MPa. The nozzle with optimal parameters was prepared and tested, and the permeability is 112.2 × 10−12 m2 and the compressive strength is 2.3 MPa. In addition, a physical model of gas transmission in the porous nozzle was proposed. With the increase in the proportion of fine sand, the permeability of the porous nozzle decreases, the compressive strength increases, and the calculated porosity increases. The hydraulic simulation of melt injection was carried out, and the mathematical model for calculating the bubble diameter of bubble floatation was formulated. The model shows that the bubble diameter increases with the increase in gas flow rate. The experiment shows that the prepared porous nozzle has the merits of a simple preparation process and low-cost, which is expected to degas aluminum melts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
