I am in a hurry, I need the answer as soon as possible, please help.
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 200mm, width 100mm, and thickness 18mm. if the total solidification time of the casting itself is known to be 3.5 mm, determine the diameter of the riser so that it will take 25% longer for the riser to solidify. assume a value of 2 for ‘n’ m( the exponent in chvorinov’s rule). know the volume and surface area of a sphere.

- 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.

- For sand-casting a steel rectangular plate with dimensions 80mm×120mm×20mm, a cylindrical riser has to be designed. The height of the riser is equal to its diameter. The total solidification time for the casting is 2 minutes. In Chvorinov‟s law for the estimation of the total solidification time, exponent is to be taken as 2. For a solidification time of 3 minutes in the riser, the diameter (in mm) of the riser is ____arrow_forwardWhy Venting holes and passageways must be built in die casting and not in sand casting?

- 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%.
