Gate Velocity Calculations for Zn and Al

This document contains calculations for the gating of two castings made of zinc and aluminum. It provides the casting weight including overflow, gate thickness and width, gate area, and calculated gate velocity for each material. The zinc casting has a lower weight, thickness, width and area than the aluminum casting, and consequently a lower calculated gate velocity.
