Shrinkage porosity in thin walls of steel castings

The reason for the occurrence of shrinkage porosity in the walls of steel castings with a thickness of 1 ... 5 mm is the uneven thickness of the layer of solidified steel melt on the mold surface. The uneven thickness of this layer is due to the variability of the melt flow rate in a thin wall during mold casting. To prevent the appearance of shrinkage porosity, the casting of the mold should be carried out at high speed and with increased overheating of the poured steel melt.
