Abstrakt: During the last 25 years, casting process simulation has developed from predicting hot spots and solidification paths to an integral assessment and optimization tool for foundries for the entire manufacturing route of castings. Modeling cast irons has always been a special challenge due to the strong interdependency between the alloy composition, applied metallurgy and metal treatment with the solidification, phases and structures which form and the resulting properties of the material.
