AFS TE0800 PDF

The second edition of the Basic Principles of Gating & Risering is designed for beginner and intermediate students in both basic and applied science of foundry practice. It focuses on those aspects of the scientific element with regard to metal flow and solidification. It emphasizes principles and use rather than theory and offers functional explanations rather than formal rules. The formal aspects of principles are included where appropriate (in discussing fluid flow and heat transfer) with more emphasis on the development of sound design considerations. This book is also available in Spanish.
