The invention provides a design method of a water blocking device for semi-
continuous casting of hard aluminum
alloy, the water blocking device comprises a water baffle plate body and springs, a
divided structure is adopted in the water baffle plate body, all the parts are connected by the springs, the whole water blocking device is suspended under a crystallizer by a hinge or is directly supported on a
casting platform, the part of the water baffle plate body which is contacted with the surface of a cast
ingot is provided with a
polymer material, and the working surface of the water baffle plate body is perpendicular with the surface of the cast
ingot or forms a certain angle with the surface of the cast
ingot. When in application, the outer surface of the cast ingot is tightly clamped at the same time of not obstructing the
casting process, the secondary cooling water of the semi-
continuous casting is blocked and shunted at the position of the water baffle plate, the cast ingot only receives part of the
water cooling between the crystallizer and the water baffle plate, the lower part of the water baffle plate is carried out the natural
air cooling; the cast ingot is repeatedly heated by a high temperature melt of the core part of the cast ingot, thus realizing the self-
tempering effect of the cast ingot, effectively reducing the
casting internal stress, preventing the cracks of the cast ingot and being applicable to the application of large-scale industrial production.
