Numerical Modeling of Thermal Flows in Entrance Channels for Polymer Extrusion: A Parametric Study

Flow distribution channels in extrusion dies are typically designed to assure uniform fluid velocity, pressure and temperature in the outlets. To ensure this uniformity, it is desirable to have the fluid melt to reach a steady state temperature in the entrance channel before entering the die body. T...
