Which of the following formulas is given by Chvorinov’s rule for the estimation of total solidification time (ts)?(a) ts = B/(V/A)^n(b) ts = B*(A/V)^n(c) ts = B*(V/A)^n(d) ts = B/(A/V)^nThe question was asked during an online interview.My doubt is from Solidification of a Large Casting in an Insulating Mould in chapter Cooling and Solidification of Casting-Forming-Welding I |

Answer» RIGHT answer is (c) ts = B*(V/A)^N Explanation: According to Chvorinov’s rule, the total SOLIDIFICATION time (ts) is the time from POURING to the completion of solidification which can be computed by: ts = B*(V/A)^n, where n = 1.5 to 2.0; V is the volume of the casting; B is the mould constant; and A is the surface area, which depends on the characteristics of the metal being casted. |
