Investigation on structure and properties of brass casting

In this work, alpha (a) brass was poured in green sand mould and metallic chill mould at about 1050°C. Sand casting method and metallic chill casting method are representing the slow and fast cooling rates of the castings, respectively. The slow cooling rate in the sand mould produces larger grain...
