The concerned parameters consisted of graphite content, maximum graphite length, primary dendrite percentage and microhardness of the matrix. Under the superposed influence of various parameters, the relationships between thermal conductivity and structural characteristics become irregular, as well as the effects of graphite length on the strength. An adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system was built to link the parameters and properties. A sensitivity test was then performed to rank the relative impact of parameters. It was found that the dominant parameter for tensile strength is graphite content, while the most relative parameter for thermal conductivity is maximum graphite length. The most effective method to simultaneously improve the tensile and thermal conductivity of gray cast iron is to reduce the carbon equivalent and increase the length of graphite flakes.展开更多
