Bhat, G K

This report describes the basic types of molds used for the manufacture of electroslag castings. The report also provides guidelines for the design of such molds based on heat generation and heat transfer considerations pertaining to the electroslag casting process. The designs of the two-step and three-step molds used for the manufacture of electroslag castings of 2-1/4 Cr-1 Mo steel, 316 stainless steel and 9 Cr-1 Mo steel are provided as examples of cost effective mold construction using cooled copper liners for metal-slag containment. 5 refs., 12 figs.
