Simulation software STAR-Cast

for aeronautics

Access has been teaming up with CD-adapco, a world leading provider of CAE technology, to put into the hands of foundrymen, casting designers and tool makers an entirely new concept in casting simulation. STAR-Cast provides a comprehensive approach for multiphase casting simulation - liquid, solid and gaseous - including conjugate heat transfer, a sharp resolution of the filling front, free-surface fragmentation, motion of trapped gas bubbles in melt, forced and natural convection in melt and gas and gas flow through porous moulds
