POLYFLOW Extrusion (Viscous Isothermal)
Test ID
G-310
Description
Properties needed to perform an extrusion simulation are generated. These include viscosity vs. shear rate data at the processing temperature and solid density. KBKZ model fitting for Polyflow is performed.
Included Tests
1x | D-015 | Melt Density |
1x | R-011 | Capillary Rheology (1 Temperature) |
Options
Samples
: 1 kg of pellets
[details]Application
Simulations of isothermal extrusion applications may be carried out. This represents the simplest level of POLYFLOW simulations and may be used for non-temperature sensitive materials or where the temperature gradients in the configuration being simulated are not large. Visco-elastic effects are assumed to be insignificant.
