Non-isothermal Simulation of the Flow in Co-rotating and Counter-rotating Twin-screw Extruders Using Mesh Partitioing Technique

A new algorithm for simulation of non-isothermal flow in a twin-screw extruder is introduced. In the new algorithm, the finite element mesh of tetrahedral elements is created in the complete barrel including the space occupied by the screws. By partitioning the tetrahedral elements which are intersected by the screw surfaces into two tetrahedral, pyramidal or prismatic finite elements, the new ...

Modeling of Transport Phenomena and Melting Kinetics of Starch in a Co-Rotating Twin-Screw Extruder

A mathematical model was developed to simulate fluid flow, heat transfer, and melting kinetics of starch in a co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw extruder (TSE). The partial differential equations governing the transport phenomena of the biomaterial in the extruder were solved by a finite element scheme. For validating the model, the predicted product pressure, bulk temperature at the entrance ...

Application of Analytical Technique to Resolving the Flow Dynamics in Self-wiping Co-rotating Twin Screw Extruders

In this paper, a method by which the fluid velocity profile and the net flow rate in self-wiping co-rotating twin screw extruders can be estimated without determining the pressure gradient has been proposed. The method involves using analytical technique to determine the fluid velocity in the local zones of the extruder such as the down channel and axial velocity and subsequently, the net flow ...

Viscous Models Comparison in Water Impact of Twin 2D Falling Wedges Simulation by Different Numerical Solvers

In this paper, symmetric water entry of twin wedges is investigated for deadrise angle of 30 degree. Three numerical simulation of a symmetric impact, considering rigid body dynamic equations of motion in two-phase flow is presented. The two-phase flow around the wedges is solved by Finite Element based on Finite Volume method (FEM-FVM) which is used in conjunction with Volume of Fluid (VOF) sc...

Mesh immersion technique for 3D moving domain calculation and applications to twin-screw extrusion and mixing

This work is concerned with the development of numerical techniques devoted to the simulation of the flow of a polymer melt in mixing processes such as twin-screw extrusion. In mixing or twin extrusion process simulation, the absence of symmetry of the moving boundaries (the screws) implies that their rigid body motion has to be taken into account by using a special treatment. In this study, we...
