Feeder was placed at last solidifying region using AutoCAST-X software. This approach has helped inminimizing the solidification related defects, thereby providing a defect free casting. This study shows thatsimulation can be of great use in optimizing the feeder dimensions and increasing the feeding efficiency of thecasting. Both macroporosity and micro-porosity were identified as 4.47 cm 3 with 100% quality. Quality, feedingyield and feeding efficiency obtained from software were 99.89, 84.66 and 22.82 % respectively.
