Studies on Solidification and Contraction in Steel Casting- The Free and Hindered Contraction of Alloy Cast Steel
Abstract
Studies are continued on the free and hindered contraction of cast steel. The contraction characteristics were obtained on eleven alloy steels whose carbon contents were similar. The contraction is hindered by means of springs and the resulting stresses and the amount of contraction correlated. Experimentation showed that the total concentration of the alloy steels was similar to that of a plain carbon steel
