Real-Time Measurements of Temperature and Velocity Profiles of Polymer Melts using Application Visualization System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Polymer melts are highly-viscous non-Newtonian fluids. The manufacture of an article from polymer involves heating, shaping and cooling processes. The rheology of the polymer melt is considered to be one of the most important factors in determining the properties of a polymer product, the properties being related to the flow and deformation of the fluid particles in the processing equipment. The flows occurring are complex due to the design of the equipment and the pressure and temperature that occur. Attempts to investigate the flow problems are very often limited by the complex geometry of the processing equipment.

The Acoustic Tomography (AT) systems are used to monitor long-term and continuous flow in rivers, seas and oceans. One of the disadvantages of existing systems in Iran is the inability of real-time/automated measurements. In this study, by adding a raspberry Pi computer to the system and performing the required programming, it was possible to do online monitoring. The data are transferred to th...

Introduction: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are ideal reinforcing fillers for a polymer matrix, because of their nanometer size, high aspect ratio and, more importantly, their excellent mechanical strength, and electrical and thermal conductivity. The CNTs are categorized into two groups: SWCNT and MWCNT. MWCNTs would have diameters ranging from 2 to 100 nm and lengths of up to tens ...
