  By Rajib Gupta, Anupam Maiti, Sujan Krishna Samanta, Sourav Debnath, Akshay Kumar Pramanick

  Abstract: Casting has a wide industrial usage because it allows manufacturing complicated forms even at a comparatively low cost. Issues like transfer of heat through the interface of the mould and the metals, the rate of solidification, and the characteristics of the mould material have a powerful impact on the quality of cast products. This study measures the influence of various mould substances on the mechanical characteristics of aluminium castings. Sand, …
