Abstract：
The finite element numerical simulation of temperature and flow fields under four different filling velocities was carried out by selecting the liner castings and casting mold schemes as the research objects, combining the structure of liner castings and the characteristics of high chromium white cast iron. The results show that the temperature change of the lining casting is not along the gradient from the gate to the riser. When the filling speed is 20 kg/s, "partition" temperature change can be seen in the center area of the lining casting, and the filling molten metal keeps regular lamellar flow. When the filling speed is 30 kg/s, the molten metal filled has the characteristics of turbulent flow.
