The depth of impression must not be greater than the thickness of the test piece (material cannot be too thin). It cannot measure on cylindrical shaped objects, and the size of ball indentor used will give different readings.
The Brinell hardness test is a standardized test in material science. It measures the hardness of a metal by measuring the indentation on the material caused by an indenter.
Due to the size of the indenter and the impression, the Brinell system is more indicative of the bulk material hardness compared to other techniques which test over a much smaller area and may in fact be measuring impurities or inclusions.Other hardness tests rely on a set load being applied to a metal, or a standard-sized object being pressed into the metal, which means the more fragile metals cannot be tested for hardness. Because the Brinell test allows for accurate hardness testing while allowing both the load and the size of the ball being pressed into the metal to vary, more delicate metals can be tested than with other hardness tests.The results of the Brinell are considered force-independent because the force can be adjusted for metals of different sizes or strengths and the results will not be affected. This is because a sphere distributes pressure evenly along its surface, and points and cones do not. Therefore, as long as the relationship between the load and the size of the carbide ball used remains constant, the results of the test will accurately measure the hardness of the material tested.
This test is the ability of one mineral to be scratched by another mineral and this is usually not done in conversion of mohs scale to brinell scale.
progressive damage due to repeated cyclic tensile loadings. Brinell test, Rockwell test
Yes , the affect of the ball does matter of how far it goes.
Hardness of ductile materials can be determined by following methods..... 1) Brinell Hardness Test 2)Vickers Hardness Test 3)Rockwell Hardness Test 4) Scratch hardness test
Rockwell Hardness of steel 1018 ranges from 71 to 78 converted from Brinell hardness. The difference from 71 to 78 is caused by manufacturing metods and/or purity of the alloy. The corresponding test for 1018 is RHB wich must be done using 1/16 a ball penetrator.
the formula of B.H.N is give less accurate value when the indentation is more. It has only one scale And applied only to some materials.
In Vickers hardness test the for used is much lighter than the force used in Rockwell hardness test, The Rockwell hardness test is the considered to be the most routinely used technique to measure the hardness of materials because of its simplicity and because it does not require specific skills in order to perform it.
It is not recommended, although it would depend on the contents of the cookie and the size and weight of the dog.
