Castings distortion of gas turbine engine parts during solidification and cooling

Abstract

Abstract The paper studies the matters of numeric simulation of the processes of casting, crystallizing and cooling down to room temperature, and addresses the related problem of the stress-strain state of the casting process in manufacturing the cast parts of a gas turbine engine. The influence of the technological parameters of casting onto the development of the deformation defects was evaluated. The works were performed on incorporating predeformation into the burn-out model for compensating temperature deformations during casting, and on production and control of the above casting with predeformation.
