Fractal model for evaluating heat transfer of high temperature porous corundum shell in vacuum investment casting

Under vacuum, heat transfer in porous corundum shell of investment casting depends on the characteristics of the solid materials and the spatial arrangement of solids and pores. In this study, we present a modified fractal approach to model the pore structure of corundum shell and to describe its in...
