I'm guessing it further complicates matters that the gas coming in at T3 is argon and the gas at T2 is the atmosphere.

Could you just explain how the flow of gases work first? Cool moves to hot? Or is it not that simple. T3 is only very slightly hotter than T1 or very very close to the temperature of T1. The boxes are what we call a slide gate plate system in the industry. The hopper could either be a...

But it gets complicated. At first pore maybe the plates are perfectly aligned. As life increases the holes become larger so they may be only partially open between subsequent pores creating air pockets as they are partially opened.

nevermind by that i meant nevermind the comment not the question.

I'm wondering what would happen if I play with the temperature of T3.

Does this picture help? The blocks are just a gate system for the flow of the molten liquid. I drew a top view of the blocks below on the drawing.

Don't want to give away too much but the blocks are two plates with holes in them acting as a valve. The valve is controlling the flow of molten metal. T3 is close to ambient temperature, but will be slightly hotter than T2 because of some heating while traveling to the injection point. Picture...

Let me clarify. Gas enters through an orifice labled gas flow. The gas entering through this temperature is somewhere between T1 and T2. T2 is at ambient atmosphere at close to room temperature. T1 is a chamber of fluid flow also at atmospheric pressure at very high temperatures. If the gas...

I have a question. All things being equal as far as flow and pressure goes...where would the gas preferentially flow in the drawing I made. To T1 or T2. Is there equation someone can point me to that will show this. Thanks.
