Disposable foundry models constitute an increasingly important role in a unitary large-size foundry. These models have many benefits, but technologies using such materials require an understanding of degradation kinetics at the time of filling. The studies presented in the article determine the size of the polystyrene combustion products used for disposable foundry models. The results were obtained by carrying out the combustion process of the polystyrene model in a special combustion chamber, in different configurations. The pressures generated during thermal degradation vary depending on process parameters such as model density or the use of an additional adhesive binder. The results of laboratory tests may suggest what values of pressure are generated when filling in full-mold and lost foam technologies. The studies provide a prelude to further analysis of materials used for disposable foundry models and quantitative evaluation of their thermal degradation products for computer simulation.

The article describes the design of a proven technology for the production of metal foam and porous metal by the foundry. Porous metal formed by infiltrating liquid metal into a mould cavity appears to be the fastest and most economical method. However, even here we cannot do without the right production parameters. Based on the research, the production process was optimised and subsequently a functional sample of metal foam with an irregular internal structure - a filter - was produced. The copper alloy filter was cast into a gypsum mould using an evaporable model. Furthermore, a functional sample of porous metal with a regular internal structure was produced - a heat exchanger. The aluminium alloy heat exchanger was cast into a green sand mould using preforms. Also, a porous metal casting with a regular internal structure was formed for use as an element in deformation zones. This aluminium alloy casting was made by the Lost Foam method. The aim is therefore to ensure the production of healthy castings, which would find use in the field of filtration of liquid metal or flue gases, in vehicles in the field of shock energy absorption and also in energy as a heat exchanger.

Presented are results of a preliminary research on determining a possibility to use microwave radiation for drying casting protective coatings applied on patterns used in the lost foam technology. Taken were measurements of permittivity εr and loss factor tgδ at 2.45 GHz, as well as attempts were made of microwave drying of a protective coating based on aluminium silicates, applied on shapes of foamed polystyrene and rigid polymeric foam. Time and results of microwave drying were compared with the results obtained by drying at 50 °C by the traditional method commonly used for removing water from protective coatings. Analysis of the obtained drying kinetics curves demonstrated that selection of proper operation parameters of microwave equipment permits the drying time to be significantly shortened. Depending on kind of the pattern material, drying process of a protective coating runs in a different way, resulting in obtaining different quality of the dried coating.

In the evaporative pattern casting process, the surface of a polystyrene pattern (Styrofoam) is coated with a ceramic layer. This ceramic layer, which coats the evaporative pattern, should have specific physiochemical properties including: resistance to thermal, chemical, and erosive activity of molten metal and proper permeability for gases which are produced by the evaporative polystyrene pattern. The article presents the research results of properties of experimentally selected ceramic layers applied on a polystyrene pattern in the evaporative pattern casting process.

Small additions of Cr, Mo and W to aluminium-iron-nickel bronze are mostly located in phases &kappa i (i=II; III; IV),and next in phase &alpha (in the matrix) and phase γ2. They raise the temperature of the phase transformations in aluminium bronzes as well as the casts’ abrasive and adhesive wear resistance. The paper presents a selection of feeding elements and thermal treatment times which guarantees structure stability, for a cast of a massive bush working at an elevated temperature (650–750°C) made by means of the lost foam technology out of composite aluminium bronze. So far, there have been no analyses of the phenomena characteristic to the examined bronze which accompany the process of its solidification during gasification of the EPS pattern. There are also no guidelines for designing risers and steel internal chill for casts made of this bronze. The work identifies the type and location of the existing defects in the mould’s cast. It also proposes a solution to the manner of its feeding and cooling which compensates the significant volume contraction of bronze and effectively removes the formed gases from the area of mould solidification. Another important aspect of the performed research was establishing the duration time of bronze annealing at the temperature of 750°C which guarantees stabilization of the changes in the bronze microstructure – stabilization of the changes in the bronze HB hardness.

This work presents the analysis of the final shaping process of the patterns aimed at determining the influence of the pressure and the time of sintering on the resistance to bending. The analysis of the research results proved that when the pressure of the sintering rises and reaches Ps=2.1 bar the resistance to bending increases, above this level of the pressure the resistance value starts decreasing. The time of styrofoam sintering at which the highest bending resistance values were obtained is ts=90 s. When the sintering pressure is less than 2 bar prolongation of the time of sintering over 90 s causes a slight increase in the resistance, however, at higher pressures prolongation of the time of sintering causes submelting of the styrofoam pattern.

The article presents analysis of the influence of ingate size on the Lost Foam casting process. In particular, analysis of simulation tests has been carried out to determine the ingate size influence on the rate of filling of the mould cavity, pressure in the gas gap and size of the gas gap. A specially prepared mathematical model of the process and an original calculation algorithm were used in simulation tests of full-mould casting. The tests have indicated that the increase of the ingate size results in the increase of filling rate and increase of pressure of gases in the gas gap. However, significant influence on mould cavity filling occurs only when the ingate size is less than [...]1 cm2.

Content available remote The effect of refractory coating permeability on the Lost Foam Process
EN
The article analyses the effect of refractory coating permeability on the process of casting manufacture by the Lost Foam technique. The analysis was focussed on simulation tests examining the effect of coating permeability on the mould cavity filling rate, pressure in gas gap, and the size of this gap. In simulation tests of the Lost Foam Process, a mathematical model of the process presented in this study and the author's own computation algorithm were used. The computations have proved that with increasing permeability of the protective coating, the pouring rate increases, too, while pressure of gas in the gas gap and the size of the gap are decreasing. The increasing pouring rate ensures correct making of castings, even if their shape is very intricate and the wall cross-sections are very small. Smaller size of the gas gap and lower gas pressure in the gap reduce the risk of mould damage. The author's own investigations confirmed the importance of the refractory coating permeability and its effect on the casting process, mould pouring rate - in particular.
