Abstract:
Today production of casting is easy but market requirement is quality casting. Earlier casting
is made with large no. of defects due to large no. of process parameter in casting process.
Specially, to predict phase transformation is very critical. As the problem of automation in
process, shortage of skill labour now a days; casting simulation requirement is high and it is
identifies defects earlier without making actual casting. This process reduces time and cost.
Many casting defects occur like; hot tears shrinkage-porosity etc. at the time of solidification
of casting. Casting simulation software is very much helpful to get quality casting. This paper
reviews the details of solidification of castings in foundries using computer simulation. In this
review paper study is done to reduce shrinkage porosity defects in sand casting component.
