By using this approach the variation or h along the different mold walls and the metal surface has been investigated by a method based on numerically calculated/experimental fit of thermal profiles (IHCP). The results have shown that the used methodology permits the characterization of h and may be used in the simulation of solidification in industrial processes. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
