True centrifugal casting is performed horizontally to make large diameter copper tube sections. The tubes have a length = 2.0 m, outside diameter = 0.4 m, and wall thickness = 30 mm. (a) If the rotational speed of the pipe = 600 rev/min, determine the G-factor on the molten metal. (b) Is the rotational speed sufficient to avoid "rain?" (c) What volume of molten metal must be poured into the mould to make the casting if solidification shrinkage and contraction after solidification are considered? Solidification shrinkage for copper = 3.5%, and solid thermal contraction = 6.5%.
