Investigation of Particle Segregation and Solidification Time in FGM's Using Centrifuge Casting Technique

Abstract:

Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) is a newly evolved concept to get desired properties in the material wherein the intermediate layer is transient since the particle size distribution gradually changes. Centrifugal casting [1] can produce only hollow shapes and Centrifuge casting can produce solid shape FGM very effectively. The study of particle distribution in a fluid using centrifuge casting process is carried out considering sand as particle and its distribution is studied under water, for different viscosity values and for viscosity varying with respect to temperature. Based on centrifugal force and density difference, an attempt has been made to mathematically model the centrifuge casting force to estimate the particle distribution over the length of the specimen and also to assess the influence of process parameters such as rotational speed (G-force) and density of the particles.
