A Novel Modeling Approach for Plastics Melting within a CFD-DEM Framework
Existing three-dimensional modeling approaches to single-screw extrusion can be classified according to the process sections. The discrete element method (DEM) allows describing solids transport in the feed section. The melt flow in the melt section can be calculated by means of computational fluid...
