文摘The experimental and numerical simulation methods were employed to study the effect of pressure on the feeding characteristics of ZCuZn16Si4 alloy castings. The results proved that different pressures would lead to different feeding distance of riser over a suitable pressure range, and the pressure can be used to greatly improve the feeding characteristics compared with gravity casting. It should be pointed out that current porosity criteria in the numerical simulation codes cannot yet be applied well enough to predict the porosity defects of low-pressure copper alloy castings.
