Overview
Content of Computer modelling of fluid flow within supercoolers used in the continuous casting of metals at University of Dundee
Supercoolers are a key component used in the solidification of liquid metal by cooling. Solidification of metal (casting) is an important manufacturing process used in the processing of large volumes of metal (by the tonne), for a wide range of manufacturing applications, which include but are not limited to high conductivity powder transmission, solder/brazing, particle accelerators and electric cars. It is the role of the student to develop a computer model of the ‘supercooler’ device and to quantify its efficiency for heat extraction. From this model a new design will be constructed to improve the efficiency of the device.
