Solidification of Metals | Industries | Metallurgy

A thorough understanding of the mechanism of solidification, the rate of heat loss from the material to the mould etc. is essential to predict, how the casting will solidify and thus avoid casting defects like seams, gas porosity, hot tears etc. Since, solidification requires energy to produce a crystalline structure, some super cooling (cooling below the freezing point) is required [...]
