Working with liquid metal makes the casting method very advantageous, but also presents some difficulties. One of the common challenges in the casting process is that the liquid metal may not fill the mold cavity completely. This is mainly due to the contact of the liquid metal with the mold surface in the mold cavity, the high heat transfer coefficient of the mold material, and the undercooling and solidification of the liquid metal during liquid movements. For this reason, the fluidity of the liquid metal is important for robust casting production. The fluidity is affected by many factors such as mold properties, casting temperature, and alloying elements. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the fluidity characteristics of GGG60 alloy. For this purpose, the effects of casting temperature, different inoculants, and different inoculant quantities were used in the new mold design, which has different cross-sectional thicknesses. The distance of the alloy in the cavities was also compared with FlowCast Casting simulation software.

用液态金属加工使铸造方法非常有利，但也存在一些困难。铸造过程中的常见挑战之一是液态金属可能无法完全充满型腔。这主要是由于液态金属与型腔中的模具表面接触，铸模材料的高传热系数以及液态金属在液体运动过程中的过冷和凝固。因此，液态金属的流动性对于坚固的铸件生产很重要。流动性受许多因素的影响，例如模具性能，铸造温度和合金元素。在这项研究中，旨在研究GGG60合金的流动性特征。为此，浇铸温度，不同孕育剂，在新的模具设计中使用了不同的孕育剂数量，其横截面厚度不同。还使用FlowCast Casting模拟软件比较了合金在型腔中的距离。
