The fundamentals of the different types of fluidity test, including the spiral test and the various thin section fluidity test, are evaluated. It is demonstrated that all of these tests actually give information in harmony, provided that proper allowance is made for the action of the effective section thickness on both the back-pressure due to capillary repulsion and the freezing time of the section. Thus the effect of the size and shape of the channel section is rationalised in terms of (i) the effective reduction in head pressure because of the back pressure due to surface tension, and (ii) the effective modulus of the section, since this directly affects its solidification time. It will be demonstrated that fluidity can be understood in terms of simple mechanisms of solidification, the superheat of the cast metal, and the latent heat of freezing. The action of remelting within a flowing channel leading to the continuous and indefinite flow of liquid metal is reintroduced here (following the original wo...

White cast irons are limited by their brittleness, and improvement of toughness has proved an elusive goal. In this study a variety of strategies have been applied in combination to achieve improved toughness. Eutectic carbide volume fraction is reduced and non-standard heat treatments are applied.The fracture toughness of the experimental low-carbon white cast iron is found to be superior to that of a conventional 20Cr—2Mo—1Cu white iron for most heat-treated conditions. A maximum toughness of 40 MPa√m was achieved in the experimental white iron, using a four hour high-temperature treatment at 1125°C. This value is substantially higher than anything previously reported for a white cast iron, of any carbon content.A field trial of grinding mill liners manufactured in the experimental white iron was carried out and indicated service lives of more than 80% longer than those obtained with the currently used pearlitic steel.

Simulations and experiments have been used to study the problem of grain impingement in cast iron. Calculation of the free surface in a volume which contains a large number of grains results in Avrami's relationship. Taking the average free surface of each individual grain gives higher values. Experimental measurements have been carried out in conditions similar to those of the second method. Results obtained by metallographic examination of quenched samples of spheroidal-graphite cast iron and uninoculated lamellar-graphite cast iron are in good agreement with the calculated results as obtained with the second method. This also confirms indirectly Avrami's relationship. Inoculated lamellar-graphite cast iron, however, shows higher values of the free surface during solidification due to the indented shape of the eutectic cells. The free surface relationship during dendrite solidification differs from the one of equiaxed grains and may be approximated by a simple model.
