View Factor Orientation (or View factor or shape factor) plays an important role in radiation heat transfer. View factor is defined as, "fraction of radiation leaving surface 'i' and strike 'j' ". Summation Rule (View Factor) If there is are similar surfaces 'i' and 'j' , then: Blackbody Radiation Exchange Radiation Exchange between Opaque, Diffuse, Gray surfaces in an Enclosure 1. Opaque 2. Surfaces 3. Two surface enclosure Radiation Shield It is used to protect surfaces from radiation act like a reflective surface.

Sand Casting
It is a process in which molten metal flows by gravity into a mold where it solidifies into the shape of mold cavity.
It has advantages and disadvantages too which are stated respectively:
Internal and hollow sections can be made in single step.
It has big application like in making propelliar.
It has limitation in mechanical properties like porosity, poor dimensional accuracy, poor surface finish.
Terms Related To Casting
Terms related to casting are described below:
Riser → It is a reservoir used into metal casting mold to prevent cavities due to shrinkage.
Pouring Cup → It is a basin through which molten metal is poured into mold.
Sprue → It is a passage through which molten metal is introduce into mold.
Core → It is a full scale model of the interior surfaces of the part.
Chaplets → Parts which hold the core in its position in the mold cavity during pouring.
Cope → The lower portion of mold from parting line.
Drag → The upper portion of mold from parting line.
Flask → A container in which cope, drag and mold cavity are surrounded by sand.
Parting Line → A line which separates cope and drag of mold.
Pattern & it's Types:
A full sized model of the part enlarged to account for shrinkage and machining allowance in the final casting.
There are 4 types of pattern which are discussed below:
1. Solid or One Peice Pattern:
It has same geometry as casting and can be adjusted in size for shrinkage and machining.
Addition of gating system is left to worker.
Location of partition line between two halves of mold is a big problem.
2. Split Pattern:
Pattern is divided into two segments along a single parting line.
Addition of gating system is left to worker.
Tapered pins in the cope align with holes in drag for proper positioning.
3. Match Plate Pattern:
Two pieces of split Pattern are attached to opposite sides of wood or metal plate.
Holes in the plate allow the cope and drag sections of the mold to be aligned accurately.
4. Cope & Drag Pattern:
Cope and drag halves of spilt pattern are attached to separate match Plate to produce cope and drag pattern.
Used for large castings.
Pattern Allowance:
Modifications that are incorporated into a pattern due to solidification shrinkage and machining is called Pattern Allowance.
Some pattern allowance like shrinkage, draft, machining are diccussed in the video given below:
Sand Conditioning:
Conditioning of sand is required to fulfill the following properties:
1. Strength:
The molds ability to maintain its shape and resist erosion caused by the flow of molten metal.
2. Permeability:
Ability to permit gases to escape through the voids in the sand.
3. Thermal Stability:
Ability of sand at the surfaces of the mold cavity to resist cracking.
4. Collapsibility:
Ability of mold to shrink without cracking the casting.
5. Reusability:
Ability of sand to be use multiple times to make other molds.
If you want to know about future or nowaday technology for sand conditioning.
Types of Sand Molds:
There are three types of sand molds which are discussed below:
Green sand mold ↣ Mold which contains moisture at the time of pouring.
Dry sand mold ↣ Mold which contains no moisture because it is baked in oven at temperature of about 150 to 300°C.
Skin Dried sand mold ↣ Mold which is partially achieved by drying the surface of green sand mold upto 15mm by using heating lamps.

TAPING CORRECTIONS There are two types of corrections depending upon the type of errors in tape due to the different conditions. 1. Systematic Errors : Slope Erroneous tape length Temperature Tension Sag 2. Random Errors : Slope Alignment Marking & Plumbing Temperature Tension & Sag 1. Temperature Correction It is necessary to apply this correction, since the length of a tape is increased as its temperature is raised, and consequently, the measured distance is too small. It is given by the formula, C t = 𝛼 (T m – T o )L Where, C t = the correction for temperature, in m. 𝛼 = the coefficient of thermal expansion. T m = the mean temperature during measurement. T o = the tempe...
Solid Mechanics OR Mechanics of Materials OR Strength of Materials: It is the study of mechanics of body i.e. forces and their effects on deformable solids under different loading conditions. Deformable Body Mechanics: It is the study of non-rigid solid structures which deform under load. Deformation/Distortion ⇾ change of shape and size OR have some relative displacement or rotation of particles. It happens when we apply combined load. Rigid Body Motion ⇾ Translation or rotation of particles but having constant distance between particles. Since deformation occur at particular load. Below this load, every body is considered as rigid body . Types of Load: Point Load ⇾ Load apply on a single point i.e. concentrated load. Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) ⇾ Load remains uniform throughout an area of element like beam. Varying Distributed Load (VDL) ⇾ Load varies with length with constant rate. Moment ⇾ It measures the tend...
