Identification of Type of Metals by Using Heat Transfer Rate

Abstract

Abstract: Metals are advances in manufacturing processes which is the industrial revolution. It is very important to accurately identify types of metal when working with metal materials, and this is particularly important in maintenance welding. Metals with higher carbon content are sensitive to hot-cracking and hardening, which can result in poor ductility for welding projects. If it want to be simply identify a piece of scrap metal, it can be done by evaluating its colour, weight and composition. The common ways to identify metal is surface appearance, spark test, chip test, magnet test, hardness test. Project is to identifying metals based on their heat rate from one end to another end through a instrument automatically. This is because of electron arrangement in them.
