Numerical simulation study of solidification process in electron beam cold hearth furnace for TC4 titanium alloy
Based on practical production experience,this study utilizes numerical simulation techniques to achieve visual monitoring and analysis of the solidification process of TC4 titanium alloy in an electron beam cold hearth furnace.A three-dimensional computational model is established using ProCAST software.The results indicate that the solidification process of the ingot includes three stages:the beginning of solidification,non-steady-state solidification,and steady-state solidification.It elucidates the temperature distribution patterns of the ingot at different solidification time and characteristics during the steady-state phase.The study focuses on investigating the influence of different pouring temperatures and withdrawal rates on the depth of the ingot's molten pool.The research provides valuable guidance for optimizing the production process of TC4 titanium alloy ingots,thereby facilitating the high-quality production of large-scale TC4 titanium alloy slabs.
