Summary of thermal properties for casting alloys and mold materials
Abstract
A review of thermal properties of casting alloys and mold materials was conducted for the purpose of stimulating activity in computer aided design for castings. A summary of thermal data; thermal conductivity, specific heat, density, and heats of fusion was prepared for metals and casting alloys, and for primary molding materials. This summary represents an initial step in the development of data bases for support of computer aided design systems for castings. Additional information is required, in particular for thermal properties of commercial casting alloy systems.
