Cartesian grid method with cut cell in the mold filling simulation

In this paper, a Cartesian grid method with cut cell has been developed to simulate Told filling of casting process. Cut cells at the cast-mold interface are generated on the Cartesian grid. With the boundary cut cells, a special treatment is necessary. That is Cartesian grid method with cut cell. A simple shape was tested and the cut cell method was compared with the traditional one on Cartesian grids. And, a developed method was applied to the real casting product simulation. Cartesian grid system causes momentum loss and unsound fluid flow patterns because of inaccurate generation of meshes. These problems have been improved by using cut cell method.
