    摘要: A hybrid core for manufacturing a cast component, the hybrid core including a sand core portion having an exterior shape configured to define an interior feature of the cast component. The hybrid core also includes a metal chill element embedded within the sand core portion. The metal chill element is configured to locally absorb heat energy from the cast component during cooling of the cast component and solidification thereof. The metal chill element is constructed and arranged within the sand core portion to be removed during shake out from the cast component subsequent to the solidification thereof. A system and a method for manufacturing a cast component using such a hybrid core are also envisioned.

    摘要: A hybrid chill with enhanced heat transfer for casting of a sand cast aluminum engine block of a vehicle is provided. The hybrid chill comprises a base comprising an outer wall having a first side and a second side. Each of the first and second sides extends from a first longitudinal end to an opposite second longitudinal end. The outer wall is closed to define a hollow portion. The base further comprises a heat transfer fluid in a liquid phase disposed in the hollow portion. The heat transfer fluid has a boiling point of between 320° C. and 400° C. at 1 bar for enhanced heat transfer during casting. The chill further comprises a plurality of crankcase members. Each member is disposed on the first side. Each member is spaced apart from a respective adjacent member defining an open recess.
