36 - A riser in the shape of a sphere is to be designed for a sand casting mold. The casting is a rectangular plate, with
length = 25 cm, width = 15 cm, and thickness = 2,5 cm. If the total solidification time of the casting itself is known to
be 4,5 min, determine the diameter of the riser so that it will take 2596 longer for the riser to solidify.
Riser volume: V-(nD³/6 (D=diameter)
Riser area: A-TD2
Casting volume: V-L-W-t (L-Length, W=width, t=thickness)

- Problem 1 Suppose we want to cast a magnesium bar 20x20x45 mm³. We are to use a mid gating (exactly at the parting line) system with two runners and multiple ingates (no bends in runner), a top riser of 1:1.2 (D:H) ratio, and the bar lying down. The pouring cup to be used has a height of 10 mm. What would be the riser dimensions for this casting? Use the JB Caine Method (a, b, c = 0.10, 0.06, 1.08).
