Castings above 450 kg and up to 1000 kg Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pouring Time = Empirical Constant 4*(Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould*Average Thickness of Section)^(1/3)
t_pt = K₄*(W_m*T_c)^(1/3)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Pouring Time - (Measured in Second) - Pouring time is the time for complete filling of a mould.
Empirical Constant 4 - Empirical Constant 4 is a constant value determined by experiments or It can vary depending on the specific casting material and they are derived from data obtained from casting operations.
Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould is the mass of metal poured in mould.
Average Thickness of Section - (Measured in Meter) - Average Thickness of Section is the thickness of the container containing metal for casting.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Empirical Constant 4: 2.63 --> No Conversion Required
Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould: 17 Kilogram --> 17 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Average Thickness of Section: 4.3 Meter --> 4.3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_pt = K₄*(W_m*T_c)^(1/3) --> 2.63*(17*4.3)^(1/3)

Evaluating ... ...

t_pt = 10.9966788202173

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

10.9966788202173 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

10.9966788202173 ≈ 10.99668 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.

What are usual values of constant k?

T (mm) up to 10 K4 - 1.00,
T (mm) 10 to 20 K4 - 1.35,
T (mm) 20 to 40 K4 - 1.50,
T (mm) above 40 K4 - 1.70
