Porosity Measurement of Porous Copper by Unidirectional Solidification

Article Preview

Abstract:

Generally, there are two ways available for porosity measurement of porous metals. One is by calculating density ratio of a porous metal and a corresponding non-porous metal, called as relative density method. The other is by counting the percentage of pores on cross section of a porous metal, called as image analysis method. In this work, both methods were employed for lotus-type porous copper on porosity measurement. The effects of several parameters in both methods on porosity values of the porous copper are reported and discussed. The relative density method is recommended as porosity by this method is more reliable for the porous copper.
