Simulation of extrusion of high density polyethylene tubes

The production of extruded polyethylene films rods, tubes and pipes is a typical industrial process that has been extensively investigated over many years. In this study the extrusion of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) tubes was simulated by using the 3D finite element simulation software StarCCM+®...
