Chapter 13, Problem 13.19P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The four media, air, brine, water, and various oils needs to be ranked as per the cooling rate from the fastest to slowest.

Concept Introduction:

Quenching is one of the important concepts in material science and metallurgy. In quenching the rapid cooling of workpiece takes place in order to obtain certain material properties. For the cooling of the workpiece, the cooling fluids used are water, oil, or air. Quenching avoids undesired low-temperature process such as phase transformation.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The situation when quenching in the air would be undesirable needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Quenching comes under the metallurgy. In quenching the rapid cooling of workpiece takes place in order to obtain certain material properties. For the cooling of the workpiece, the cooling fluids used are water, oil, or air. Quenching avoids undesired low-temperature process such as phase transformation. Quenching is especially used to hardened the steel.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

During quenching in liquid,the part being cooled or the bath is agitated needs to be explained.
