Casting Simulation System ADSTEFAN

Hitachi

New Functions / Enhancement of ADSTEFAN Ver.2012

  1. Operability Improvement by Integrated GUI
    Frequently used functions or tools are iconified and available on the Tool Bar. The tool bar varies depending on the operation menu.
    ADSTEFAN becomes more user-friendly software due to the operability improvement.

  5. Enlarged Marker Functions for Slag or Oxide Entrapment Prediction
    Slag, sand, oxide, or chill entrapment can be evaluated by giving a flexibility to marker generation conditions.
  6. Enlarged Marker Functions for Slag or Oxide Entrapment Prediction

  7. Enhanced Gas Entrapment Evaluation
    Gas marker, gas quantity and its graph can be output for gas entrapment evaluation.
  8. Enhanced Gas Entrapment Evaluation

  9. Output a Volume of Leaked Gas in CSV file.
    You can observe the effect of air vents by evaluating the amount of the leaked gas.
  10. Output a Volume of Leaked Gas in CSV file

  11. Intensification Effect
    Effects of the intensification can be confirmed by comparing the gas markers before the intensification with one after the intensification.
