Three-dimensional nonisothermal mold filling simulations in resin transfer molding

The manufacture of polymer composites through the process of resin transfer molding (RTM) involves the impregnation of the reactive polymer resing into a mold with preplaced fibrous reinforcements. Determination of RTM processing conditions requires the understanding of various parameters, such as material properties, mold geometry, and mold filling conditions. Modeling of the entire RTM process provides a tool for analyzing the relationship of the important parameters. This study developed a nonisothermal 3-D computer simulation model for the mold filling process of RTM based on the control volume finite element method. The model will be able to simulate mold filing in molds with complicated 3-D geometry. Results of some numerical studies in RTM show the applications of the proposed model.

A fast computational model to the simulation of non‐isothermal mold filling process in resin transfer molding

The numerical simulation of mass and heat transfer model for the curing stage of the resin transfer molding (RTM) process is known as a useful method to analyze the process before the mold is actually built. Despite the intense interest in the modeling and simulation of this process, the relevant work is currently limited to development of flow models during filling stage. Optimization of non‐isothermal mold filling simulation time without losing the efficiency remains an important challenge in RTM process. These were some reasons that motivate our work; namely the interested on the amelioration of the performance of RTM simulation code in term of execution time and memory space occupation. Our approach is accomplished in two steps; first by the modification of the control volume/ finite element method (CV/FEM) and second by the implementation in the modified code of an adapted conjugate gradient algorithm to the compressed sparse row storage scheme. The validity of our approach is evaluated with analytical results and excellent agreement was found. The results show that our optimization strategy leads to maximum reduction in time and space memory. This allows one to deal with problems with great and complex dimensions mostly encountered in RTM application field, without interesting in the constraint of space or time. POLYM.

Resin transfer molding process optimization using numerical simulation and design of experiments approach

The art of resin transfer molding (RTM) process optimization requires a clear understanding of how the process performance is affected by variations in some important process parameters. In this paper, maximum pressure and mold filling time of the RTM process are considered as characteristics of the process performance to evaluate the process design. The five process parameters taken into consideration are flow rate, fiber volume fraction, number of gates, gate location, and number of vents. An integrated methodology was proposed to investigate the effects of process prameters on maximum pressure and mold filling time and to find the optimum processing conditions. The method combines numerical simulation and design of experiments (DOE) approach and is applied to process design for a cylindrical composite part. Using RTM simulation, a series of numerical experiments were conducted to predict maximum pressure and mold filling time of the RTM process. A half‐fractional factorial design was conducted to identify the significant factors in the RTM process. Furthermore, the empirical models and sensitivity coefficients for maximum pressure and mold filling time were developed. Comparatively close agreements were found among the empirical approximations, numerical simulations, and actual experiments. These results were further utilized to find the optimal processing conditions for the example part.     

Modeling and simulation approaches in the resin transfer molding process: A review

A review of current approaches in modeling and simulation of the resin transfer molding (RTM) process is presented. The processing technology of RTM is discussed and some available experimental techniques to monitor the process cycle are presented. A master model is proposed for the entire process cycle consisting of mold filling and curing stages. This master model contains the fundamental and constitutive sub‐models for both stages. The key elements of the master model discussed in this study are: flow, heat and mass balance equations for fundamental sub‐models, permeability, cure kinetics, resin viscosity and void formation for constitutive sub‐models. At the end, numerical methods widely used to simulate the filling process are presented and published simulation results of mold filling and process cycle are reviewed.     

Correlation analysis of epoxy/amine resin cure,structure and chemorheological behavior in RTM processes

At the reactive mould‐filling stage in resin transfer moulding (RTM) processes, the correlation analysis of epoxy/amine resin cure, structure and chemorheological behavior plays a key role in the optimum control of RTM processes. A new methodology used to simulate the reactive resin flow in RTM processes with edge effect is presented in this article. The recursive approach and the branching theory are used to describe the evolution of molecular structure and resin viscosity, respectively. And then the resin flow process is simulated by means of a semi‐implicit iterative calculation method and the finite volume method. The results reveal the proposed resin cure‐structure‐viscosity model provides excellent agreement with the experimental viscosity data during the RTM filling process. It is also observed that the curing reaction causes the inhomogeneous distribution of resin conversion and resin molecular weight in the mould cavity, which will result in the spatially structural and performance inhomogeneities in the finished products. With the injection temperature or the edge width increasing, the discrepancy of resin conversion and resin molecular weight in the mould cavity is more evident. This study is helpful for understanding the complicated relationship among the processing variables, resin structures, and properties. POLYM. COMPOS., 2011. © 2011 Society of Plastics Engineers     

Numerical simulation of thickness variation effect on resin transfer molding process

In this work, a computer model has been developed to investigate the effect of reinforcement thickness variation and edge effect on infiltration and mold filling in resin transfer molding (RTM) process. The developed code is able to predict the flow front location of the resin, the pressure, and the temperature distribution at each time step in a mold with complex geometries. It can also optimize the positioning of injection ports and vents. The filling stage is simulated in a full two‐dimensional space by using control volume/finite element method CV/FEM and based upon an appropriate filling algorithm. Results show that the injection time as well as flow front progression depends on the edge effect, the variation of reinforcement thickness, and the position of injection ports; this highlights that the inclusion of these effects in RTM simulation is of definite need for the better prediction and optimization of the process parameters. The validity of our developed model is evaluated in comparison with analytical solutions for simple geometries, and excellent agreements are observed. POLYM.
