Question

A cast WHEEL along with its tree structure taken out after breaking the sand mold is shown in the figure. The height of sprue is 8 cm and area at down stream sprue (at pt 3) is 3.5 cm Sprue Gate-1 Riser S cm Gate-2 If molten metal is poured from top of the sprue, then calculate the flow rate (cm/sec) of the liquid metal in the sprue. What is the flow rate in cm/sec at gate-1, and gate-2? The sizes of both gates are same. a) b)
