Abstract

The paper analyzed the flow of the diameter of 72mm twin screw extruder screw-type’s field measurement from some machinery co., LTD by FLUENT software. Firstly, through established the flow channel of three-dimensional entity model by Gambit, defined the boundary and completed the meshing simultaneously. Then, the property parameters of a formula processing of wood plastic composite materials were recorded as the already-known condition, and defined a model in FLUENT 3D calculator. Ultimately, fitting and solving in the FLUENT. Therefore, the nephogram of the pressure, temperature, velocity and shear stress distribution have been put out. Analyzing the wood plastic composited melting’s flow condition in this screw unit in order to investigated the problems existed in melt shear and delivery process. Actually these solved problems can direct the project designers choose the next-step optimal designing and technological parameters successfully so that yielding the wood plastic products with high quality and improving the competitive ability of the industry.
