(b) In casting experiments performed using a certain alloy and type of sand mould, for
which n can be approximately taken as 2, it took 155 sec for a cube-shaped casting
to solidify. The cube was 50 mm per side.
(i)
Determine the value of the mould constant in Chvorinov's rule.
(ii)
When the same alloy and mould type are used to make a cylindrical
casting of diameter 30 mm, what is the maximum length of the cylinder if
the maximum solidification time is limited to 1 minute?
You were required to make 1000 simple small parts in aluminum. Would using a permanent mold be less expensive per part then preparing 1000 sand molds explain?
