Pure aluminum is poured into a sand mold. The metal level in the pouring basin is 10 in. above the metal level in the mold, and the runner is circular with a 0.4-in. diameter. What are the velocity and rate of the flow of the metal into the mold? Is the flow turbulent or laminar? 10.44 A cylinder with a diameter of 1.5 in. and height of 3 in. solidifies in 3 minutes in a sand casting operation. What is the solidification time if the cylinder height is doubled? What is the time if the diameter is doubled?
