Abstract:
Centrifugal casting process is most effective method in recent days to manufacture large quantities of circular componentes like pipes, tubes, etc. Due to its high temperature and invisible mold, it is difficult to know the mechanism of molten metal inside the mold. Thermal expansion behaviour is strongly influenced by the presence of voids. Voids are formed because of air bubbles being entrapped while pouring molten metal inside the mold and it is correlated to the microstructure, the deformation of the matrix, and the internal stress conditions. Thermal cycling of composites induces thermal stresses which lead to dimensional change. Coefficient of thermal expansion plays a major role in the formation of equiaxed microstructure. Many experimental results showed that the relationship between the CTE of Al/SiCp and temperature is nonlinear. The effects of process parameters like melt temperature, rotational speed, and flow rate were evaluated to develop sound casting.
