MEEN 360: Quiz #5-A Name: UIN: Problem #1: (1 pt.) True/False F ___ Dispersed needle-like particles are better than round particles. T ___ Faster solidification results in smaller interlamellar spacing Problem #2: (9 pts) Answer the following questions based on the phase diagram for Pb-Sn Two Pd-Sn alloys are solidified and have the following cooling curves. The operational engineer notices that more of the alloy is in solid phase just around the eutectic temperature of 183 °C for alloy 1. Both alloys are completely solid just after they pass that temperature. Alloy 1 Alloy 2
1. (1 pt.) What’s the composition of Alloy 1 in % Sn ? and why? 37% Sn 2. (1 pt.) What’s the composition of Alloy 2 in % Sn ? and why? 90% Sn 3. (1 pt.) Draw Alloy 1 on the phase diagram and show if it is a hypo eutectic or a hyper eutectic alloy? Hypo 4. (1.5 pts.) What is the % amount of eutectic microconstituent in Alloy 1 at 182 ˚C ? 61.9 − 37 61.9 − 19 = 42% 5. (1.5 pts.) What is the % amount of primary microconstituent in Alloy 2 at 182 ˚C ? 97.5 − 90 97.5 − 61.9 = 21% 6. (1.5 pts.) What is the amount of α phase in Alloy 2 at 182 ˚C ? 97.5 − 90 97.5 − 19 = 9.6% 7. (1.5 pts.) Does the following sketch represent the microstructure in Alloy 1 or 2 ? and why?
Alloy 1
