Thermodynamic analysis of cast irons solidification with various types of graphite

Elbel T., Hampl J.

Archives of Foundry Engineering

2012

Vol. 12, iss. 4

157-165

The contribution summarises the results of oxygen activity determinations, which were measured and registered continuously in castings from cast irons with various types of graphite. The results were used to find the relationship between two variables: natural logarithm of oxygen activities and reverse value of thermodynamic temperature 1 /T. Obtained regression lines were used to calculate oxygen activity at different temperatures, to calculate Gibbs free energy \deltaG at the different temperatures and to calculate the single \deltaG value for significant temperature of the graphite solidification. The results were processed by a statistical analysis of data files for the different types of graphite with flake, vermicular and spheroidal graphite. Each material has its proper typical oxygen activities range and individual temperature function of Gibbs free energy for analysing and governing casting quality.

State of the art of metal reoxidation study of iron castings

Purpose: Metal reoxidation causes a number of iron castings defects, particularly when pouring them in greensand moulds. One of them is pinholes the occurrence of which is explained by several hypotheses. One of possible causes is reoxidation processes in the foundry mould cavity. During its flowing in the gating system and in the mould cavity the liquid metal gets into contact with oxygen from air and water vapour. Secondary oxidation of elements takes place in sequence of their affinity to oxygen. Design/methodology/approach: Therefore the authors were aimed at cast irons. Besides indirect methods the reoxidation was researched mainly by direct measurement of oxygen activity during filling of a mould up to solidus temperature. Findings: The use of oxygen activity measurement for direct study of changes caused by reoxidation processes is limited and that it is more suitable for study of the influence of different factors on cast iron crystallization and graphite morphology. Practical implications: Obtained results have confirmed that oxygen activity measurement can serve to the casting quality control. But it is little sensitive for explanation of processes running in a cavity during metal casting. Originality/value: Continuous monitoring of oxygen activity changes in a foundry mould is an original solution since other authors have done their measurements only in a furnace with disposable sensors.
