Vertical Gating Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Vertical Gating = Volume of Casting/(Volume*Surface Area Of Casting)
VG = VC/(VT*SACasting)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Vertical Gating - (Measured in Second) - Vertical Gating is used to control mould filling process.
Volume of Casting - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Casting is the volume of liquid metal undergoing casting.
Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.
Surface Area Of Casting - (Measured in Square Meter) - Surface Area Of Casting is the surface area of liquid metal undergoing casting.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Volume of Casting: 1.25 Cubic Meter --> 1.25 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Volume: 63 Cubic Meter --> 63 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Surface Area Of Casting: 1.5 Square Meter --> 1.5 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
VG = VC/(VT*SACasting) --> 1.25/(63*1.5)
Evaluating ... ...
VG = 0.0132275132275132
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0132275132275132 Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.0132275132275132 0.013228 Second <-- Vertical Gating
(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Casting Calculators

Bottom Gating
​ Go Bottom gating pouring time = Ratio of Area/sqrt(2*Acceleration)*2*(sqrt(Length of Cylinder)-sqrt(Length of Cylinder-Height of Capillary Rise/Fall))
Caine's Formula
​ Go Freezing Ratio = (Surface Area Of Casting*Volume Riser)/(Surface Area Riser*Volume of Casting)
Solidification Time
​ Go Solidification Time = Solidification Time per Unit Area*(Volume of Casting/Surface Area Of Casting)^2
Shape Factor
​ Go Shape Factor = (Length of Casting+Width of Casting)/Average Thickness of Section

Vertical Gating Formula

Vertical Gating = Volume of Casting/(Volume*Surface Area Of Casting)
VG = VC/(VT*SACasting)
