Gas assisted injection moulding: Experiment and simulation. Industrial machine experimental studies of the effect of process variables on gas bubble formation, and with simulation based upon a pseudo-concentration method.

The gas assisted injection moulding process is an important extension to conventional injection moulding. Gas assist can be applied in a number of ways, but here the penetration of a gas bubble through the polymer melt is of interest. A 3D fi nite element implementation of a pseudo concentration...
