A Constructal-Theory-Based Methodology to Determine the Configuration of Empty Channels Used in the Resin Impregnation of a Square Porous Plate

Liquid composite molding techniques are largely used to produce pieces such as truck cabins or wind turbine blades. The liquid resin infusion processes use a network of injection channels to improve the resin flow through a porous-reinforced medium. The present numerical study predicts the positioni...
