Melting Aluminum by molten Steel

Hi,
The problem i'm dealing with involves the pouring of molten steel into enclosure which contains an aluminum block. I'm looking for a CFD software best capable of predicting the flow and heat exchange between the molten steel and the aluminum block. I would like to know the temperature the aluminum block achieves and whether it melts or not. Modeling the melt process of the aluminum block is a nice-to-have. In such case, I guess it becomes a 3 liquids problem (molten steel, molten aluminum and air). Is there any CFD software capable of performing such calculations? I would appreciate your help a lot!! Thanks Last edited by leff; May 17, 2011 at 10:36. Reason: title correction |
