TOTAL MARKS: 100
TOTAL TIME: 3 HOURS
(1) Question 1 is compulsory.
(2) Attempt any four from the remaining questions.
(3) Assume data wherever required.
(4) Figures to the right indicate full marks.
1 (a) Classify in detail the different types of crystal imperfections. Explain with a neat sketch the edge dislocation.(8 marks)
1 (b) Illustrate steady state and non-steady state diffusion.(6 marks)
1 (c) Steel gear, having carbon content of 0.2% is to be gas carburized to achieve carbon content of 0.90% at the surface and0.4% at 0.5mm depth from the surface. If the process is to be carried out at 927°C, find the time required for carburization. Take diffusion co-efficient of carbon in given steel -1.28 × 10-11 mt2/sec. Given data:
Z | crf(z) |
0.75 | 0.7112 |
Z | 0.7143 |
0.8 | 0.7421 |

iii) The Super heat
iv) The Cooling rate, just before solidification begins.
v) The total solidification time.
vi) The local solidification time.
img(8 marks) 5 (a) Draw the Iron-Carbon equilibrium diagram and label it. Show the invariant points on it.Write the reactions occurring at these points indicating the temperature and composition of each phase.(10 marks) 5 (b) Two metals A and B have their melting points at 900°C and 800°C respectively. The alloy pair forms an eutectic at 600°C of composition 60% B. They have unlimited liquid solubilities. The solid solubility of A in B is l0% and that of B in A is 5% at eutectic temperature and remains constant till 0°C.
