Abstract

In this research, the velocity field of polymeric fluids is simulated in twin screw extruder by finite volume method (FVM). The simulation was three dimensional and the discretization performed using central difference method. For optimizing of the simulation, an Under Relaxation Factor (URF) parameter was considered. It was found that by using URF equal to 0.3, simulation had more rapid convergence. Considering a lower power law index (n) also had a similar effect.
