Numerical Computation of Extrusion and Draw-extrusion Cable-coating Flows with Polymer Melts

This paper is concerned with the numerical solution of polymer melt flows of both extrudate-swell and tube-tooling die-extrusion coatings, using a hybrid finite element/finite volume discretisation fe/fv. Extrudate-swell presents a single dynamic freesurface, whilst the complex polymer melt coating...
