Materials Science and Manufacturing Engineering

  1. During the electrochemical machining (ECM) of iron (atomic weight = 56, valency = 2) at current of 1000 A with 90% current efficiency, the material removal rate was observed to be 0.26 cc/s. If Titanium (atomic weight = 48, valency = 3) is machined by the ECM process at the current of 2000 A with 90% current efficiency, the expected material removal rate in gm/s will be
    1. 0.11
    2. 0.23
    3. 0.30
    4. 0.52
Correct Option: C

MRR =
AI
ρZF

0.26 =
56 × 1000 × 0.9
ρ × 2 × 96500

ρ = 0.9956.
Now,   Expected MRR =
48 × 2000 × 0.9
0.9956 × 3 × 96500

= 0.30 gm/s
