Abstract: A molding system includes a mold and a fluid delivery system. The mold includes a fluid permeable material that defines a mold cavity and is permeable to a cooling fluid. The mold is configured to mold a molten material arranged in the mold cavity. The fluid delivery system is in fluid communication with the fluid permeable material, and is configured to deliver the cooling fluid via nozzles to the fluid permeable material. When the molten material is arranged in the mold cavity, the fluid delivery system delivers the cooling fluid to the fluid permeable material at a delivery pressure that is intentionally varied, such that the cooling fluid permeates through the fluid permeable material to cool and solidify the molten material arranged in the mold cavity to form a solidified outer skin. The delivery pressure may be varied, e.g. increased, as a thickness of the solidified outer skin increases.
