Correlation Between Surface Roughness and Rheological Properties of Liquid Ductile Cast Iron

The investigation of filling process of ductile cast iron flow in sand mould was showed the correlation between casting roughness surface and rheological properties of metal. Evidently of castings surface roughness was state of distance, from a few to a dozen diameters of vertical channel inlet. The method of rod fluidity test permit to study of rheological properties of metal and the roughness surface of castings.
