水辅助注塑中高压水穿透过程的数值模拟

对水辅助注塑(WAIM)中高压水的穿透过程进行有限元模拟,研究熔体的充模行为,并分析其拉伸场和剪切场。结果显示,高压水推动熔体充模的过程可分为填充初期、快速填充期和填充末期3个阶段;较明显的拉伸应变速率仅出现在高压水前沿和熔体前沿区域;高压水前沿区域存在分布较宽且较为强烈的剪切速率,而高压水对已穿透区域的熔体几乎没有剪切作用。此外,模拟所得WAIM制品的穿透长度和掏空率与实验结果较吻合。

主要研究局部区域纤维体积密度改变对树脂流动前沿的影响。利用RTM-Worx模拟仿真软件,分析局部渗透率对流动前沿的变化及对填充该区域所用时间的影响规律。在模拟仿真的基础上,通过添加不同厚度垫片改变局部区域纤维体积密度,以对模拟仿真结果进行实验验证。仿真与实验结果表明:当局部纤维体积密度增大到一定值之后,该局部区域流动前沿出现包络现象,并且树脂填充该局部区域所用时间也开始急剧增加;当纤维体积密度继续增大时,该区域会出现树脂填充不完整的现象,最终导致制件出现干斑缺陷。     

气辅成型过程中可压缩空气流动数值模拟

气辅成型技术能够有效地改善产品力学性能、提高产品的质量,因此在注射成型生产中应用广泛,与之相应的气辅成型CAE技术也得到了快速发展。当前的气辅成型CAE技术中假定空气为不可压缩流体,忽略了空气的可压缩性,因此研究气辅成型过程中可压缩空气的流动行为具有一定的实际意义。针对气辅成型过程中可压缩空气流动的复杂行为,基于假设将复杂的三维(3D)流动问题转化为二维(2D)。采用 CBS方法建立2D瞬态可压缩空气流动的有限元分析模型,求解算法采用预共轭梯度法,并用VC++完成了算法编制,实现了可压缩空气流动过程的数值模拟,其压力结果可作为充填流动分析的基础数据。     

Effect of packing pressure on fiber orientation in injection molding of fiber‐reinforced thermoplastics

Injection molding of fiber‐reinforced polymeric composites is increasing with demands of geometrically complex products possessing superior mechanical properties of high specific strength, high specific stiffness, and high impact resistance. Complex state of fiber orientation exists in injection molding of short fiber reinforced polymers. The orientation of fibers vary significantly across the thickness of injection‐molded part and can become a key feature of the finished product. Improving the mechanical properties of molded parts by managing the orientation of fibers during the process of injection molding is the basic motivation of this study. As a first step in this direction, the present results reveal the importance of packing pressure in orienting the fibers. In this study, the effects of pressure distribution and viscosity of a compressible polymeric composite melt on the state of fiber orientation after complete filling of a cavity is considered experimentally and compared with the simulation results of Moldflow analysis.

注塑成型充填过程的可压缩流动分析

注塑成型过程中,熔体在型腔中的流动和传热对制品质量性能有重要的影响.为了预测注塑制品的收缩、翘曲和力学性能,精确预测充填过程的流动及传热历史是十分必要的.本文考虑熔体的可压缩性及相变的影响,将充填过程中熔体的流动视为非牛顿可压流体在非等温状态下的广义Hele-Shaw流动.采用有限元/有限差分混合方法求解压力场和温度场,采用控制体积法跟踪熔体流动前沿,并应用Visual C++实现了注塑充填过程的可压缩流动分析.为了保证能量方程各项在单元内边界的连续性,结点能量方程各项由单元形心处的离散值加权平均获得,因而,能量方程在计算区域内整体求解.对两个算例进行了分析,模拟结果与实验结果的对比,验证了本文数值算法及程序.     

注塑成型Hele-Shaw流动模拟中热对流的异步长求解

在Hele-Shaw流动数值模拟中,速度是压力的后处理结果。如果是点浇口,则浇口附近速度会随单元尺寸缩小而趋于无穷大,导致能量方程作为一个整体求解时,时间步长必须非常小,否则会产生很大误差;而根据热对流物理意义分步求解,则需追踪当前物质在上一时刻位置,当单元速度很高、逆向搜索需穿透多个单元时,搜索可能会失败。鉴于此,基于分步求解法,研究提出一种变长度子时间步长方法处理对流项,确保搜索路径局限在当前单元内,并采用二分法确定子时间步数量,使算法简洁有效。算例表明,该方法在保证计算精度和求解稳定性的同时,可以明显减少计算时间,提高计算效率。     

Nonisothermal simulation on pressure during resin transfer molding

High speed injection has been widely used in resin transfer molding (RTM), which improves manufacturing efficiency. This sometimes leads to excessive pressure within the mold, resulting in fiber destruction and mold deformation. Heating the mold and injection resin reduces the viscosity of resin, leading to influence on mold internal pressure. Selection of optimal mold and injection temperature for effective reduction of mold internal pressure has become a source of concern in the polymer industry. This article presents an outlook relationship between mold temperature, injection temperature, and mold internal pressure. It also showcases a temperature selection method angle to addressing this issue. The “FLUENT” software has been secondarily developed that gives an insight in using the three-dimensional nonisothermal RTM simulation. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Influence of injection temperature and pressure on the properties of alumina parts fabricated by low pressure injection molding (LPIM)

The quality of ceramics parts made by powder injection molding (PIM) method is influenced by a range of factors such as powder and binder characteristics, rheological behavior of feedstock, molding parameters and debinding and sintering conditions. In this study, to optimize the molding parameters, the effect of injection temperature and pressure on the properties of alumina ceramics in the LPIM process were thoroughly studied. Experimental tests were conducted on alumina feedstock with 60 vol% powder. Injection molding was carried out at temperatures and pressures of 70–100 °C and 0.1–0.6 MPa respectively. Results showed that increase in injection temperature and pressure and the resulting increase in flow rate leads to the formation of void which impairs the properties of molded parts. The SEM studies showed that injection at temperature of 100 °C results in evaporation of binder components. From the processing point of view, the temperature of 80 °C and pressure of 0.6 MPa seems to be the most suitable condition for injection molding. In addition, the effects of sintering conditions (temperature and time) on the microstructure and mechanical properties are discussed. The best final properties were found using injection molding under the above stated conditions, thermal debinding and sintering at 1700 °C during 3 h.

A simplified chemorheological model of viscosity evolution for solvent containing resol resin in RTM process

The solvent content‐dependent chemorheology of the solvent containing resol resin for resin transfer molding (RTM) was investigated. The curing behavior of the resol resin was studied by in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy together with rheology tests. The chemorheological behavior of resol resins with a series of solvent contents was measured under isothermal conditions. The four parameters of empirical dual‐Arrhenius equation regarding isothermal resin viscosity and reaction rate constant were found to be functions of the solvent content. A simplified chemorheological model involving only three parameters of curing temperature, time, and solvent content was first established to facilely describe the viscosity during precuring process. The simulated viscosity results during isothermal curing process agreed well with the experimental data which shows the simplified chemorheological model can be utilized to describe the viscosity evolution and offer guidance for optimizing the injection process and improving the design flexibility of RTM process. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In recent years, widespread use of advanced ceramics in vast areas of the industries such as medical technology and automotive industries has led to the growth of the advanced ceramics market.
