Hi everyone,
I am new in inspire cast. I have a problem when set up the high pressure die casting solver. I don't know where is the best location to place the phase change point.

Thank Matthieu. I have another question: Why should we place the point in that location? I mean i can place the node wherever i want. Thank you.
The pahse change point is typically placed at the end of the runner, before the material reached the part. The piston starts to push the metal with low velocity (1st velocity) in order to avoid turbulence and formation of bubbles. Before the material enters into the part, the velocity changes (2nd velocity) and the piston push very fast the material to fill the full cavity.
You can use Inspire Cast to experiment various positions of the point and see the impact on the quality of your part.
