Possibility of generating strong secondary flow in mixing region of twin screw extruder was analyzed numerical FEM simulation using the commercial CFD package Polyflow. Adaptive remeshing - mesh superposition technique was used to generate high density polyethylene velocity profiles in simulation. C...
