Answer / anil kamat

If it is a free flow single gate single runner casting then
the density variation leads to the diffrence in properties
across various sections. To get uniform density variation
usually pressure flow multigate multirunner castings are
preferred.

Answer / preethi

uneven solidification results in different grain size and
that leads to the difference in hardness. the surface of the
cast will have finer grains due to faster solidification
(comparatively high temperature gradient) than the core.
