List of top Mechanical Engineering Questions on Design of Gating System

Which of the following is a critical design consideration for gating systems in casting?

A mould has a down sprue whose length is 20 cm and the cross-sectional area at the base of the down sprue is 1 cm\(^2\). The down sprue feeds a horizontal runner leading into the mould cavity of volume 1000 cm\(^3\). The time required to fill the mould cavity will be

A mould cavity of $1200\text{ cm}^3$ volume has to be filled through a sprue of $10\text{ cm}$ length feeding a horizontal runner. Cross-sectional area at the base of the sprue is $2\text{ cm}^2$. Consider acceleration due to gravity as $9.81\text{ m/s}^2$. Neglecting frictional losses due to molten metal flow, the time taken to fill the mould cavity is}
