Simulation of unconstrained solidification of A356 aluminum alloy on distribution of micro/macro shrinkage

In the condition of Newtonian heat transfer, A356 aluminum alloy is solidified with randomly distributed equiaxed dendrites. Ability of interdendritic liquid flow is described by permeability parameter using Darcy's law and this parameter is used to predict the micro-shrinkages. In this study t...
