A cast WHEEL along with its tree structure taken out after breaking the sand mold is...
Hi, please help me with this problem, please explain me step by step and write with very good calligraphy. Thank you very much. Consider casting sand mold of the piece shown in the figure. The dimensions are in centimeters. (i) The molten metal overflows the pouring cup of the mold and flows down the sprue (downsprue) at a constant rate of 2000 cm3/s. The cross section of the sprue is circular, with a diameter of 6 cm at the top....
1) Turbulence during pouring of the molten metal is undesirable since (two best answers): a) it causes discoloration of the mold surfaces, b) it dissolves the binder used to hold together the sand mold, c) it increases erosion of the mold surfaces, d) it increases the formation of metallic oxides that can become entrapped during solidification, e) it increases the mold filling time, and f) it increases total solidification time 2) Total solidification time is defined as a) time between...
(Metal-Casting Processes) (Groups) 10.47 A round casting is 0.2 m in diameter and 0.75 m in length. Another casting of the same metal is elliptical in cross-section, with a major-to-minor axis ratio of 2, and has the same length and cross-sectional area as the round casting. Both pieces are cast under the same conditions. What is the difference in the solidification times of the two castings? 10.48 A cylinder with a diameter of 50 mm and a height of 75...
