THE REVIEW OF INJECTION MOLDING PROCESS SIMULATION USING OPEN FOAM SOFTWARE
Main Article Content
Abstract
To solve the Injection molding case in OpenFOAM CFD tool, the code has been developed by Kristjan Krebelj and Janez Turk. Sample geometry and numerical methods has taken form the research paper to demonstrate using OpenFOAM solver. This paper presented the tutorial example “openInjMoldSim” in stepwise manner to use this solver. This solver was modification of “compressibleInterFoam” which distributed with OpenFOAMpackage. The modified solver used for simulation of Injection molding filling, packing and cooling stages. Some test code also been given for the viscosity in the model adhere to the Cross-WLF model, The heat transfer code for solution of the heat diffusionequation, Solid shear modulus valueof the solid phaseand Equation of statefor finding specific volume of melt.
