Inorganic core binders decompose during molten flow of steel into a mold, thereby blowing into casting and print vents. It is crucial to know if they are blowing into the casting to quantify the timing, location and amount of gas blow. Shown here is a simulation of core gas pressure and potential regions of higher pressure where core gas would blow into the steel casting. Also shown is a fill with corresponding flow from colored gates so metal inflow from gates can be compartmentalized to identify source of any filling defects in the sand casting.
