A flat plate is to be cast in an open mold
whose bottom has a square shape that is 200
mm by 200 mm. The mold is 40 mm deep. A
total of 106 mm3 of molten aluminum is
poured into the mold. Solidification
shrinkage is known to be 6.0%. The linear
shrinkage due to thermal contraction after
solidification is 1.3%. If the availability of
molten metal in the mold allows the square
shape of the cast plate to maintain its 200
mm by 200 mm dimensions until
solidification is completed, determine the
final dimensions of the plate.
A riser in the shape of a sphere is to be designed for a sand casting mould at Simon Castings. The casting is a rectangular plate, with length = 400 mm, width = 250 mm, and thickness = 15 mm. If the total solidification time of the casting itself is known to be 7 min, determine the diameter of the riser so that it will take 30% longer for the riser to solidify.
what solidification time is required for a casting of 9.5 cm3 and a mold contact area of 10 cm2? The mold constant is 838 s/cm2.

- Which of these factors causes more porosity to form toward the interior of a casting rather than toward the outside? (a) Gasses are less soluble in the solid metal than the liquid, so solidified areas push dissolved gasses toward the interior. (b) Casting under a vacuum causes gasses near the liquid metal surface to be drawn out of the liquid during solidification. (c) The feeding structures of the mold are designed to force entrapped air into the center of the casting. (d) Draft on the mold wall forces air bubbles toward the interior of the solidifying metal. (e) None of the above Non-eutectic alloys (most commercial alloys) solidify over a temperature range. Which of the following statements explains how this affects the casting process. (a) Solidified non-eutectic alloys are especially difficult to remove from metal dies (b) Non-eutectic alloys have significantly less fluidity than pure metals or eutectic alloys.

(b) When operating at this speed, what is the centrifugal force per square meter (Pa) imposed by the molten metal on the inside wall of the mold?arrow_forwardState the steps that must be taken to correct the following casting defects: 1.

Briefly explain the differences observed between the microstructure that develop from mold walls in each case.arrow_forward(c) A square casting has a volume and surface area equal to 1000 mm³ and 600 mm² respectively, and a cylindrical riser through which the molten metal is poured has a volume and surface area equal to 282 mm³ and 244 mm² respectively. Using Chvorinov's rule, determine whether such a design would avoid shrinkage cavities.arrow_forwardwhat are molten metal problems in a casting rocess ?why do those occur?arrow_forward
- A slab of 1500 mm x 750 mm x 500 mm is required to be cast using a sand casting process. It was observed previously that the total solidification time (T) for this casting = 1.6 min. Find out the cylindrical riser dimensions (diameter to height ratio = 1) for a solidification time T = 5 min.arrow_forwardIn a particular foundry, an engine component made of aluminum is to be produced using sand casting process as shown in Figure Q2. It is specified that the rate at which the molten metal is being poured into the mold is 1.2 m'/hour. The radius of the upper portion of the sprue is 0.010 m and height is 0.2 m.

Solidification shrinkage is known to be 6.25%, which is a volumetric contraction, not a linear contraction. Table 7.1 lists the linear shrinkage due to thermal contraction after solidification.
