V8 Engine Block Sand Casting Webinar

Uploaded August 2024 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

A V8 engine block is a complex casting with several thick and thin-walled features. A large volume of metal alloy needs to be poured well to fill the entire casting and compensate for shrinkage of metal, eliminating defects and porosity in critical and stress-tested areas of an engine block’s life cycle. This webinar aims to show an exploratory design process starting with the engine block thermal solidification analysis and various factors involved in designing a casting feeding and riser system.

$Frac Tank Hydraulics | FLOW-3D HYDRO Hydraulic mixing is critical when using frac tanks in the oil and gas industry as a mobile water storage solution. Improved hydraulic mixing can lead to a more efficient treatment system. To model the hydraulic characteristics, the simulation was set up with a scalar model to visualize the mixing. The scalar model along with streamline plots and other advanced post-processing tools allows for easier analysis of an open-top tank with such a configuration.
