Shape design for polymer spin packs: modeling, optimization and validation

Abstract A shape optimization approach for the design of cavities with a specified wall shear stress profile is presented. Applications are the design of spin pack geometries with low and uniform residence times and without dead spaces to prevent polymer degradation for sensitive materials. The opti...
