Influence of the die entry angle on the entrance pressure drop, recoverable elastic energy, and onset of flow instability in polymer melt flow
AbstractAn experimental study has been carried out to investigate the effects of die entry angle on the entrance pressure drop, recoverable elastic energy, and onset of melt fracture in the flow of viscoelastic polymeric melts through a capillary die. For the study, capillaries with anL/Dratio of 4 and with varying die entry angles, 15°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, and 180°, were used for extruding low‐density polyethylene and high‐density polyethylene. Measurements were taken of wall normal stresses along the upstream reservoir section, tapered conical section, and straight capillar
