Abstract:The cooling rate of molten cast iron can make or mar it. The cooling rate plays a significant role in the resulting mechanical properties of cast iron. It determines the grain growth and size. The mechanical properties of cast iron variation along its length are achieved either with the use of different mold materials or by sectioning to ensure varied cooling rates. Mechanical properties can, however, also be varied along its length without any of these adopted methods by the incorporation of cooling channels … Show more
