Answer:
(a) Hypoeutectic
(b) Alpha solid, aluminium
(c) 70% α
, 30% β
(d) 97.6% α, 2.4% β
(e) 97.6% α, 2.4% β
(f) 97% α, 3% β
Explanation:
(a) The eutectic composition for Al Si alloy is 11.7 wt% silicon, therefore, an Al-4% Si alloy is hypoeutectic
(b) For the hypoeutectic alloy, aluminium, Al, is expected to form first, such that the aluminium content is reduced till the point it gets to the eutectic proportion of 11.7 wt% silicon
(c) At 578°C we have
% α: Al (11 - 4)/(11 - 1) = 70% α
% L: Si 100 - 70 = 30% β
(d) At 576°C we have
α: 99.83% Si (99.83 - 4)/(99.83- 1.65) = 97.6% α
β: 1.65% Si (4 - 1.65)/(99.83- 1.65) = 2.4% β
(e) Primary α: 1.65% α (99.83 - 4)/(99.83 - 1.65) = 97.6% α
Eutectic 4% Si = 100 - 97.6 = 2.4% β
(f) At 25°C we have;
α%: (99.83 - 4)/(99.83 - 1) = 97% α
β%: 100 - 97 = 3% β.
