  2. Contents Objective Dimensions of Extrudate Inverse Analysis with Remeshing Mesh Refinement Study Calibrator Material Parameters

  3. 0.11 Objective Dimensions of the Extrudate Units: CM Desired Dimensions of the Extrudate

  4. Inverse Analysis with Remeshing According to PolyFlow manual three sections must be modeled as • “For the section to be maintained at a constant shape, constant section for prediction is selected instead of Adaptive section for prediction. POLFYLOW is to compute the shape (referred to as the adaptive section of the die), based on the specified extrudate shape.”

  5. Mesh Refinement Study • Mesh refinement in two different directions – along the longitudinal direction and transverse direction. • The inlet of adaptive section is updated based on constant section obtained by inverse analysis. Model Half Domain No.of elements on this face = 450

  6. Mesh Refinement: Half Domain • Max no.of elements is limited by memory • Much better ear shape is observed using more elements. • In all cases the initial adaptive section that was rectangular is modified similar to constant section after inverse analysis to get smooth transition.

  7. Mesh Refinement: Quarter Domain Model Quarter domain (Final Result) with 1.5 inches of free surface

  8. Other Team Existing Our Team Comparison of Profiles

  9. Sample Extrudate: Experiment (a) (b) Both profiles of the sample extrudates measured by (a) our team and (b) the other team [1] are much larger than objective size (2 x 1 cm) of extrudate. [1] http://www.kostic.niu.edu/extrusion/scanned_extrusion_samples_11-13-03.pdf

  10. Comparison of Desired and Simulated Extrudate by Direct Extrusion Case B in previous quarter domain simulation

  11. Comparison Die Section – Dimensions (mm)

  12. Observations & Discussion • Existing Die gives Larger Dimensions of the Extrudate than Objective with Rounded Corners. • For Desired Extrudate of 2 x 1 cm² with 90º Corners, it seems that the die must be smaller and needs to have ears as shown in our simulation.

  13. Observations & Discussion • The simulation is based on rigorous computational analysis. • Convergence analysis in x-y and z-directions was performed until converged result was obtained. • Consistent to standard extrusion analysis, three sections of transition, constant, and free-surface were used to make sure that the extrudate remains constant after the end of free surface. • A material function fits the experimental data for all temperatures. • Gravitational effect has been checked out to be negligible. • Though isothermal and non-isothermal simulations give closer results, non-isothermal simulations with temperature-dependent viscosity are carried out. • Improving adaptive section after inverse analysis. • Use long enough length of free surface to insure that the velocity remains constant.
