Grey Cast Iron, Mass less than 450 kg Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pouring time = (Fluidity of iron/40)*(1.41+(Average thickness of section/14.59))*sqrt(Mass of casting)
t_pt = (F/40)*(1.41+(T_c/14.59))*sqrt(W)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Pouring time - (Measured in Second) - Pouring time is the time for complete filling of a mould.
Fluidity of iron - (Measured in Meter) - Fluidity of iron is the measure of its ability to flow through the mould.
Average thickness of section - (Measured in Meter) - average thickness of section is the thickness of the container containing metal for casting.
Mass of casting - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of casting is the mass of casting to be prepared or required.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Fluidity of iron: 45 Meter --> 45 Meter No Conversion Required
Average thickness of section: 4.3 Meter --> 4.3 Meter No Conversion Required
Mass of casting: 36.8 Kilogram --> 36.8 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_pt = (F/40)*(1.41+(T_c/14.59))*sqrt(W) --> (45/40)*(1.41+(4.3/14.59))*sqrt(36.8)

Evaluating ... ...

t_pt = 11.6340279493636

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

11.6340279493636 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

11.6340279493636 ≈ 11.63403 Second <-- Pouring time

What is pouring time?

The time for complete filling of a mould is termed pouring time, is a very important criterion for design.Too long a pouring time requires a higher pouring temperature and too less a pouring time means turbulent flow in the mould, which makes the casting defect-prone. There is thus an optimum pouring time for any given casting.
The pouring time depends on the casting materials, complexity of the casting, section thickness and casting size. The various relations used are not theoretically obtained but established generally by the practice at various foundries and by experimenters.
