| Abstract | The paper discusses the problem of grain density and ferrite content in microstructure of vermicular graphite iron cast in bars of different section diameters and cylinder head casting. The experimental results regarding the section effect demonstrate that the nodule count, grain density and ferrite content are all function of the cast bar diameter in this particular case ranging from 0.6 to 8.0 cm and microstructure and mechanical properties in the cylinder head. The nodule count (or grain density) has been reported to increase, while ferrite content was decreasing with decreasing casting diameter. The density number of the grains Nv has been related (by regression analysis) to the undercooling degree |
