Technological stages of steel borehole preventor casting are studied during this research. Preventor is a very important part of blow-out equipment. A mathematical model of the integrated hydrodynamic and thermal processes in the mould and casting is formulated. Discrete analogues for some technological processes are derived. The problem is solved as three-dimensional using numerical procedures and means of ProCAST software. Images of solid part formation within the time are provided. Shrinkage porosity allocation for both numerical model and preventor itself is analyzed. Analysis and comparison of the numerical simulation and full-scale experiment (prepared sample of real preventor) results proved validity of computational experiment.
