A Design Approach of Porthole Die for Flow Balance in Extrusion of Complex Solid Aluminum Heatsink Profile with Large Variable Wall Thickness
In this study, porthole die used for extrusion of a solid heatsink profile with wall thickness variation ratio up to 15.3 was designed using finite element (FE) simulations. To improve the flow balance in the die, a design approach was introduced to find the appropriate die structure, which includes...
