Chapter 9, Problem 9.43P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The value of mold constant inChvorinov's rule should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

According to Chvorinov's Rule,

  $t_s=B{(\frac{v}{A})}^n$

Where,

t_s= Solidification time

B= Constant

V= Volume of casting

A= Area of casting

n= Constant

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The solidification time needs to be calculated for $\text{0}\text{.5 in}\text{. × 0}\text{.5 in}\text{. × 6 in}.$ bar.

Concept introduction:

Solidification is a process of forming crystals during cooling of molten metal. The time required to solidify the metal is known as solidification time.

According to Chvorinov's Rule,

  $t_s=B{(\frac{v}{A})}^n$

Where,

t_s= Solidification time

B= Constant

V= Volume of casting

A= Area of casting

n= Constant
