Abstract

This report is an extension of the paper "Influence of Pattern Geometry and other Process Parameters on Mold Filling in the Aluminum EPC Process", by Yuan Sun, Hai-Lung Tsai and Donald R. Askeland (2). The increase in fluidity in the expendable pattern casting (EPC) process with pattern perimeter, volume to surface area (V/A) ratio, and pouring temperature was studied for a 700°C-900°C temperature range and for both aluminum and cast iron.
