What is Ranginess factor?
With ‘chunky’ castings, e.g. cubes, the volume component may be negligible, but for those ‘rangy’ castings, similar to plate like, the influence of volume component becomes increasingly significant. It is sometimes useful to have a parameter called “ranginess factor” R to define the casting type. It may be defined as the ratio of Modulus of a cube of same volume as casting to the modulus of casting.
How to Calculate Ranginess Factor?
Ranginess Factor calculator uses Ranginess Factor = Modulus of Cube/Modulus of Casting to calculate the Ranginess Factor, Ranginess factor is the ratio of Modulus of a cube of same volume as casting to the modulus of casting. Ranginess Factor is denoted by R symbol.
How to calculate Ranginess Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Ranginess Factor, enter Modulus of Cube (Mcube) & Modulus of Casting (Mcasting) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Ranginess Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.5 = 15/10.
