Presentation transcript:

Solidification Time Whether the casting is pure metal or alloy, solidification takes time. The total solidification time is the time required for the casting to solidify after pouring. This time is dependent on the size and shape of the casting by an empirical relationship known as Chvorinov’s rule

Solidification Time Chvorinov’s rule Where TTS = total solidification time, sec. V = volume of the casting, m3. A = surface area of the casting, m2. n is an exponent usually taken to have a value = 2. Cm is the mold constant.

Chvorinov’s rule indicates that a casting with a higher volume-to-surface area ratio will cool and solidify more slowly than one with a lower ratio. This principle is put to good use in designing the riser in a mold. To perform its function of feeding molten metal to the main cavity, the metal in the riser must remain in the liquid phase longer than the casting.

Shrinkage On solidification of molten metal, shrinkage occurs during three steps: 1- Liquid contraction during cooling prior to solidification. 2- Contraction during the phase change from liquid to solid, called solidification shrinkage. 3- Thermal contraction of the solidified casting during cooling to room temperature.

Directional Solidification The term directional solidification is used to describe this aspect of the freezing process and the methods by which it is controlled. The desired directional solidification is achieved by observing Chvorinov’s rule in the design of the casting itself, its orientation within the mold, and the design of the riser system that feeds it

External chills

Riser Design The riser is used in a sand-casting mold to feed liquid metal to the casting during freezing in order to compensate for solidification shrinkage. To function, the riser must remain molten until after the casting solidifies. Chvorinov’s rule can be used to compute the size of a riser that will satisfy this requirement. The following example illustrates the calculation.

Riser Design Risers can be designed in different forms. A side riser is attached to the side of the casting by means of a small channel. A top riser is one that is connected to the top surface of the casting. Risers can be open or blind. An open riser is exposed to the outside at the top surface of the cope. This has the disadvantage of allowing more heat to escape, promoting faster solidification. A blind riser is entirely enclosed within the mold.
