Notes:
This paper presents the prediction results of the temperature change during thesolidification process of the cylinder head made of the AC2A aluminum alloy. Prediction resultshave been obtained by using the FDM solidification analysis based on two different solidificationmodels were investigated. Here, the solidification model means functional relationship between theTemperature and the Fraction Solid. The first model is a simple Linear function and the secondmodel is estimated from DSC measurement. The comparison between the simulated and measuredtemperatures of the aluminum cylinder head revealed that the selection of solidification modelssignificantly reflects the prediction results. The DSC model gives higher prediction accuracy of thetemperature change than the Linear model. The solidification models estimated by using Thermo-Calc and UMSA [3] were also investigated
