Effective Metal Head for Parting Gate Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Effective Metal Head for parting Gate = Height of Sprue-(Height of Mould Cavity in Cope^2)/(2*Total Height of Mould Cavity)
H_e = h-(p^2)/(2*c)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Effective Metal Head for parting Gate - (Measured in Meter) - Effective metal head for Parting Gate depends on the casting dimensions and the type of gating used.
Height of Sprue - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Sprue is the height that is specified of sprue passage only, used in mould during casting.
Height of Mould Cavity in Cope - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Mould Cavity in Cope is the height of the mould cavity in cope part and denoted by symbol p.
Total Height of Mould Cavity - (Measured in Meter) - Total Height of Mould Cavity is the height of the mould in cavity and denoted by c symbol.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Height of Sprue: 9 Centimeter --> 0.09 Meter (Check conversion here)
Height of Mould Cavity in Cope: 3 Centimeter --> 0.03 Meter (Check conversion here)
Total Height of Mould Cavity: 4.5 Centimeter --> 0.045 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Density of Molten Metal using Bernoulli's Equation

Go Density of Metal = Casting Mass/(Area at Choke Section of Sprue*Pouring Time of Mould*Efficiency Factor of Gating System*sqrt(2*[g]*Effective Metal Head))

Pouring Time using Bernoulli's Equation

Go Pouring Time of Mould = Casting Mass/(Density of Metal*Area at Choke Section of Sprue*Efficiency Factor of Gating System*sqrt(2*[g]*Effective Metal Head))

Choke Area using Bernoulli's Equation

Go Area at Choke Section of Sprue = Casting Mass/(Density of Metal*Pouring Time of Mould*Efficiency Factor of Gating System*sqrt(2*[g]*Effective Metal Head))

Casting Mass using Bernoulli's Equation

Go Casting Mass = Area at Choke Section of Sprue*Density of Metal*Pouring Time of Mould*Efficiency Factor of Gating System*sqrt(2*[g]*Effective Metal Head)
