What is Spiral Fluidity test?

Since fluidity depends on such a large number of diverse variables, it is not feasible theoretically to determine it and therefore, practical testing is resorted to. The most commonly used testing is the spiral fluidity test. The mould of the same composition that is to be used is prepared with the standard spiral pattern with gating. The casting prepared from the mould is measured for the fluidity which is represented by the length of the spiral solidified.
Gray cast iron is the most fluid of all the ferrous alloys. The fluidity of gray cast iron is affected by the composition factor (CF). Since the fluidity is affected by the pouring temperature and to affect the completion of the mould filling in a reasonable time, the pouring temperatures of the molds are accordingly controlled.
