Polymer Flow Simulation in Extruder - Using Solidworks
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I'm seeking an expert to simulate the behavior of molten polymers within an extruder and extrusion head. The goal is to identify potential issues such as vortex formation, stagnation points, and fluctuations in temperature and pressure during the extrusion process.
Key responsibilities include:
- Using different polymer types, including low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene, to conduct simulations
- Adjusting various operating parameters (e.g., screw rotation speed, temperature profile) to optimize the extrusion process
- Focusing on critical aspects of polymer behavior such as temperature variations and pressure distribution
The ideal candidate should have:
- Proficiency in using simulation software for polymer flow
- Experience with various types of polymers
- Understanding of the importance of operating parameters in extrusion
- Ability to identify and address key issues in the simulation, particularly concerning temperature variations and material miscibility.
