Abstract
A disposable core die includes a first portion defining an inlet configured to receive a slurry therethrough, a second portion integrally formed downstream from the first portion and configured to receive the slurry from the first portion, and a third portion integrally formed downstream from the second portion. The second portion includes a plurality of hollow tubes that are substantially coaxially aligned and have a wall thickness within a range defined between about 0.1 mm and about 0.5 mm, and the third portion defines an outlet configured to discharge excess slurry from the second portion.
