@ARTICLE{Remišová_A._Identification_2018, author={Remišová, A. and Belan, J. and Sládek, A.}, volume={vol.18}, number={No 2}, journal={Archives of Foundry Engineering}, howpublished={online}, year={2018}, publisher={The Katowice Branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences}, abstract={First part of the article describes how we can by change of gating system achieve better homogeneity of product made by investment casting. Turbine engine flap was made by investment casting technology – lost wax casting. The casting process was realised in vacuum. The initial conditions (with critical occurrence of porosity) was simulated in ProCAST software. Numerical simulation can clarify during analysis of melt turbulent flow in gate system responsible for creation of entrained oxide films. After initial results and conclusions, the new gating system was created with subsequent turbulence analysis. The new design of gating system support direct flow of metal and a decrease of porosity values in observed areas was achieved. Samples taken from a casting produced with use of newly designed gating system was processed and prepared for metallography. The second part of article deals with identification of structural components in used alloy - Inconel 718. The Ni – base superalloys, which are combined unique physical and mechanical properties, are used in aircraft industry for production of aero engine most stressed parts, as are turbine blades.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Identification of Structural Components of Turbine Engine Flap After Modification of Casting Technology Parameters}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/106795/PDF/AFE%202_2018_26.pdf}, doi={10.24425/122518}, keywords={Turbine engine flap, Investment casting, Inconel 718}, }
