The effect of casting variable on the fluidity of high silicon, especially hypereutectic, heat-resistant ductile cast iron melt was investigated. When pouring temperature and silicon content were constant, that was increased with carbon content. When the pouring temperature and carbon content were constant, that also increased with the silicon content. Even though these results were thought to be caused by the high heat of fusion evolved during the crystallization of proeutectic graphite nodules, further research seemed to be needed. The fluidity for taller sprue was higher than that for smaller one.
