Manufacturing Process Technology I & II _ Assignment 4 solution

Q1. Determine solidification time of the slab-shaped 15 cm thick casting of cast iron when it
is poured with no superheats, into sand molds at the initial temperature (28 0C).
(Consider, Data for CI, θf =1540 0C, L = 272 kJ/kg, ρm = 7850 kg/m3, Data for sand, c =
1.17 kJ/kg-K, K = 0.8655 W/m-K, ρ = 1600 kg/m3)
(a) ≈ 30 min
(b) ≈ 134 min
(c) ≈ 91 min
(d) ≈ 10 min

Q2. Which of the following region in casting shows the linear (steep) decrease in the
temperature?
(a) Mold-metal interface
(b) Mold
(c) Solidified metal
(d) Liquid metal

Q3. Determine solidification time of the sphere-shaped 15 cm diameter casting of cast iron
when it is poured with no superheats, into sand molds at the initial temperature (28 0C).
(Consider, Data for CI, θf =1540 0C, L = 272 kJ/kg, ρm = 7850 kg/m3, Data for sand, c =
1.17 kJ/kg-K, K = 0.8655 W/m-K, ρ = 1600 kg/m3)
(a) ≈ 72 min
(b) ≈ 7 min
(c) ≈ 1 min
(d) ≈ 101 min

Q4. The condition for no contact resistance in welding observes which of the
phenomenon?
(a) Casting doesn’t dry.
(b) Casting gets soldered to the mold face.
(c) Casting permeability increases tremendously.
(d) Casting dry out instantly.
Q5. How metal mold varies from the sand mold while undergoing solidification?
(a) Metal mold doesn’t dry out without any additional coolant.
(b) Metal mold always provides a larger mold cavity to accommodate larger sections in one
go and hence takes more time to solidify.
(c) The thermal conductivity of the solidified metal may provide considerable
thermal resistance.
(d) None of the above.

Q6. What should be the most appropriate design consideration for choosing dimensions of
a specifically shaped riser?
(a) It is chosen to give a maximum A/V ratio.
(b) It is not affected by the A/V ratio at all.
(c) It is chosen for A/V ratio equal to 1.
(d) It is chosen to give a minimum A/V ratio.

Q7. Determine the dimensions of a cylindrical riser to be used for casting an aluminum cube
of sides 20 cm. The volume shrinkage of aluminum during solidification is 6.5%.
(a) d > 20 cm, h > 20 cm
(b) d = 12.57 cm, h = 12.57 cm
(c) d > 20 cm, h < 20 cm
(d) Any of these can be true.

Q8. Canne’s relationship is based on the assumption that:


(a) Cooling rate is linearly proportional to the ratio of surface area to volume.
(b) Cooling rate is inversely proportional to the ratio of surface area to volume.
(c) Cooling rate is linearly proportional to the cube of the ratio of surface area to
volume.

(a) (A/V)c < (A/V)r
(b) (A/V)c = (A/V)r
(c) (A/V)c > (A/V)r
(d) Any of the above.

(b) Material aesthetics
(c) Composition gradient
(d) Variation of solidus temperature
