Characterization of the heat transfer coefficient in thermoplastic profile extrusion

The main objective of this work is to design a prototype system that will enable the determination of realistic values for h at the interface polymer-calibrator in real and varied extrusion conditions. The data obtained will allow improving the accuracy of the numerical codes that are being develope...

Description
Summary:The main objective of this work is to design a prototype system that will enable the determination of realistic values for h at the interface polymer-calibrator in real and varied extrusion conditions. The data obtained will allow improving the accuracy of the numerical codes that are being developed by the research team, through the implementation of realistic models for h.
