Where the modulus M is the ratio of the casting's volume to its surface area: M = V A {\displaystyle M={\frac {V}{A}}} The mold constant B depends on the properties of the metal, such as density, heat capacity , heat of fusion and superheat, and the mold, such as initial temperature, density, thermal conductivity , heat capacity and wall thickness.
Freeze-cast alumina that has been partially sintered. The freezing direction in the image is up. Freeze-casting, also frequently referred to as ice-templating, freeze casting, or freeze alignment, is a technique that exploits the highly anisotropic solidification behavior of a solvent (generally water) in a well-dispersed solution or slurry to controllably template directionally porous ...
A bronze casting showing the sprue and risers. A riser, also known as a feeder, [1] is a reservoir built into a metal casting mold to prevent cavities due to shrinkage.Most metals are less dense as a liquid than as a solid so castings shrink upon cooling, which can leave a void at the last point to solidify.
The coating process begins with the application of the coating on the food product, but the end product must be stable throughout its shelf life. Therefore, a coating process is completed by a stabilizing process, either by freezing, cooling, heating or drying. The sequences of this process are:
A furnace lining brick, or an investment casting mold, can be easily fabricated using this method. Recently there was a flurry of interest in freeze-casting at the University of Bath, UK, which led most significantly to two doctoral theses, by J. Laurie in 1995 and by M. Statham in 1998. Taken together in chronological order, these form a good ...

This ratio must be maintained within a range to ensure single crystal formation with the correct microstructure of the coarse dendrite with side branches. [8] It has been found that increasing the solidification cooling rate further improves the mechanical properties and rupture life of single crystals grown by directional solidification due to ...
