Facing the market economy and global challenge the development of manufacturing industry especially casting industry is critical to the national economy. To reform the traditional casting industry by using computer technology is one of the hottest research frontiers studied by many researchers and engineers. Computer simulation of solidification process of shaped casting can assure the quality of casting, optimize the casting technology, shorten the lead time and therefore decrease the developing and manufacturing cost. Recently, numerical simulation of mold-filling and solidification processes of shaped casting and prediction of microstructure and property as well are extensively studied and put into application in many casting plants with many successful simulation cases.
