Melt Conveying in Single-Screw Extruders: Modeling and Simulation

Numerous analyses have modeled the flow of polymer melts in the melt-conveying zones of single-screw extruders. While initial studies mainly provided exact analytical results for combined drag and pressure flows of Newtonian fluids, more recently developed, numerical methods seek to deepen the under...
