In the expendable pattern casting (EPC) process for the aluminum alloy casting, the thermal decomposition rate of the expendable pattern is smaller than the cast iron, therefore the misrun by the temperature drop at the melt surface occurs easily. This study takes account of the control of the heat release to the mold to investigate numerically and experimentally the effect of the coat permeability on the molten aluminum alloy temperature during mold filling in the EPC process. An aluminum alloy plate was cast by the EPC process, and the temperature change of the melt surface to the melt flow direction was measured. The use of high permeability coat led to a higher melt velocity and a smaller temperature drop at the melt surface than the case of the normal permeability coat. The temperature of molten metal filling into the cavity was numerically simulated, and the obtained temperature drop at the melt surface agreed relatively well with the experimental values.
