Modelling the calibration/cooling stage of complex thermoplastic profiles

Thermoplastics have very low thermal diffusivity, which is advantageous for some applications but turn difficult their processing. In fact, in continuous processes, such as extrusion, it can limit the production rate, which is dependent on the installed cooling capability of the extrusion line, orig...
