(a)
Interpretation:
The volume fraction of copper in the given composite should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
According to the rules of mixtures for particulate composites:
Where
Volume fraction is defined as:
The above relation is used for calculation of volume fractions and density of composite
Volume fraction is defined as the ratio of sum of specified component to the sum of total number of components.
(b)
Interpretation:
The volume fraction of pores in tungsten carbide before infiltration should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Volume fraction is defined as the ratio of volume of specified component to the sum of total volume of components.
(c)
Interpretation:
The original density of tungsten carbide compact before infiltration to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Rules of mixtures for particulate composites is defined as the total density is equal to the sum of volume fraction of component and density of component
Where
Volume fraction is defined as the ratio of sum of specified component to the sum of total number of components.
