A cylindrical riser with diameter-to-length ratio = 1.0 is to be designed for a sand casting mold. The casting geometry is illustrated in Figure. If the mold constant = 19.5 min/in? in Chvorinov's Rule, determine the dimensions of the riser so that the riser will take 0.5 minute longer to freeze than the casting itself.

Determine the time required to fill the mold cavity along with the riser as shown in the following figure. A slab of 1500 mm x 750 mm x 500 mm is required to be cast using a sand casting process. It was observed previously that the total solidification time (T) for this casting = 1.6 min. Find out the cylindrical riser dimensions (diameter to height ratio = 1) for a solidification time T = 5 min.
A aluminium alloy casting has a cylindrical geometry with 100mm in diameter and weighs 3200 gram. This casting takes 7.5 min to completely solidify.

A riser in the shape of a sphere is to be designed for a sand casting mould at Simon Castings. The casting is a rectangular plate, with length = 400 mm, width = 250 mm, and thickness = 15 mm. If the total solidification time of the casting itself is known to be 7 min, determine the diameter of the riser so that it will take 30% longer for the riser to solidify.

Q#3: Explain in detail different components of a gating system in sand mold casting
In sand casting of hollow part of lead, a cylindrical core of diameter 120 mm and height 180 mm is placed inside the mould cavity. The densities of core material and lead are 1600 kg/m³ and 11300 kg/m³ respectively. The net force (in N) that tends to lift he core during pouring of molten metal will be. . . . .
Pure aluminium is poured into a sand mold. The metal level in the pouring basin is 203.2mm above the metal level in the mold, and the runner is circular with a 7.62 mm diameter.What is the velocity and the rate of flow of the metal into the mold? Is the flow turbulent orlaminar? Note that pure aluminum has a density of 2700 kg/m3and a viscosity of 0.004Ns/m
A true centrifugal casting operation is to be performed in a horizontal configuration to make cast iron pipe sections. The sections will have a length = 105 cm, outside diameter = 20 cm, and wall thickness = 1.25 cm. If the rotational speed of the pipe = 500 rev/min, determine the G-factor. Is the operation likely to be successful?

When designing patterns for casting, patternmakers use special rulers that automatically incorporate solid shrinkage allowances into their designs. For example, a 12-in. patternmaker’s ruler is longer than 1 foot. How long should a patternmaker’s ruler be for making patterns for (a) aluminum castings and (b) high-manganese steel?
