Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 53QTP
When designing patterns for casting, pattern makers use special rulers that automatically incorporate solid shrinkage allowances into their designs; therefore, a 100-mm patternmaker’s ruler is longer than 100 mm. How long should a patternmaker’s ruler be for (1) aluminum castings, (2) malleable cast iron, and (3) high manganese steel?

- A flat plate is to be cast in an open mold whose bottom has a square shape of 12.5 cm by 12.5 cm. The mold is 7.0 cm deep. A total of 350 cm³ of molten aluminum is poured into the mold. 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. If the availability of molten metal in the mold allows the square shape of the cast plate to maintain its square dimension until solidification is completed, determine the final dimensions (width and height) of the plate.arrow_forward12.Silica sand has which one of the following compositions: (a) A12O3, (b) SiO, (c) SiO2, or (d) SISO4? 13.A misrun is which one of the following defects in casting: (a) globules of metal becoming entrapped in the casting, (b) metal is not properly poured into the downsprue, (c) metal solidifies before filling the cavity, (d) microporosity, and (e) "pipe" formation?arrow_forward2.
