Flow balancing is the process of changing the geometry of an extrusion die to achieve a uniform flow distribution at the die-exit. This can be an iterative and costly process. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is often used to aid in flow balancing of extrusion dies by predicting the flow profile without …

Dispersion is a critical process within the extrusion industry. The attention of this study is drawn to the deficiency in dispersive mixing quality in single screw extruders compared to their twin screw counterparts. This study outlines an approach that is used to evaluate and quantify the quality of …

CC-BYNatural ventilation has been used widely in buildings to deliver a healthy and comfortable indoor environment for occupants. It also reduces the consumption of energy in the built environment and dilutes the concentration of carbon dioxide. Various methods and techniques have been used to evaluate …
