Numerical Analysis of the New Concept of Screw of an Extruder for Polymer Materials
Streszczenie
The article introduces an innovative concept of a screw of an extruder used for
granulation of polymer materials. Three construction solutions were introduced, differing in
the construction parameters of the screw. The scope of the research included the numerical
strength-thermal analysis of the introduced construction solutions of the screw. The analysis
was conducted using the finite element method. Numerical calculations were a thermally
coupled FEM analysis, posing a geometrically and thermally nonlinear problem. The obtained
results confirmed the sufficient strength of the structure of the screw, subjected to both the
pressure caused by the transport of polymer granules as well as the temperature generated
by the friction of the granules on the surface of the screw. The numerical tool applied in the
research was the commercial program ABAQUS®
